The season runs from September to early July with the normal breaks for Christmas and Easter. In icy weather Astro pitches can freeze, so be prepared for some cancellations.

Equipment

We welcome players of all ages and abilities. Children need to come along wearing clothes and footwear suitable for sport and layers for when it gets cold, including gloves. We recommend all children wear gum guards and shin pads.
We have a supply of training sticks to use if you are new to hockey.

Get Involved

We are an active, motivated club, of long-standing in the vicinity of St Neots. We are based at Longsands College where there is a brand-new latest generation astroturf pitch and great amenities.

Hockey is a fast-growing participation sport in the UK. At an international level there is a growing following, and the GB teams are progressing steadily up the rankings.

In 2012, with the Olympics coming to London, there are great opportunities for hockey. For the first time ever, our GB Womens team made the final of the Champions Trophy, and gained a silver medal ahead of Holland and Germany, losing only to Argentina. There are two further high-profile international events, in May and in June, leading up to the Olympics itself.

We have a strong and growing junior section where children from a wide selection of local schools are having fun building the future of the club, employing EHB qualified coaches. We are affiliated to the England Hockey Board, where we have access to performance coaching as our young hockey players develop their skills.

We operate a Youth Development Squad as a route for players to progress to our Mens, Ladies, Mixed and (eventually) Veteran teams, which play in leagues mostly across East Anglia.
