Winchester Mixed Team Needs You!

Winchester HC enter two mixed competitions (running January-June) – a local Hampshire League run by Poole Hockey Club and the National Mixed League run by England Hockey.

For two seasons WHC Mixed Squad have been very successful in the Hampshire League, coming top both times and even taking home the silverware after competing in the Finals Day against the Dorset League winners.

Nationally, Winchester have had bittersweet clashes – last season drawing the overall Cup winners in the first round but having a spectacular game and only being defeated by a Golden Goal.

Standing strong in the knock-out Plate Competition with a bye and then a Golden Goal win taking us into the quarterfinals, our journey came to a premature end - with an away game where all elements seemed to be against us.

Both these mixed competitions are Sunday social games, with the opportunitey to meet other club members, play on a world class pitch and enjoy a higher standard of hockey.

If anyone is particularly interested in playing (or even umpiring), please contact Scores, who is captaining both squads again this season.

Mens 1st XI Need You!

This weekend see's Winchester 1st team host Milton Keynes in a vital league game. With the league so finely balanced, both teams need the points to stay out of the relegation hot seats.

A bit of crowd support will go a long way in a game like this!
So I am inviting everyone to make every effort to come along and show your support and help bag the result needed in what should be a fiercely competitive game. All support would be gratefully appreciated.

Having recently played away at Ashford in front of 70 -100 supporters, I can not stress how much of an advantage your support will be!

Push back is a 1.30 start at Bar End.

Hopefully we will see you all there

Ady
(Premier Squad Coach)
