Boys Hockey

Hockey is the main sport for boys during the Lent term, with a thriving indoor programme run outside the curriculum during the Michaelmas term.

We field up to 16 sides and pupils enjoy access to hockey clinics and 1:1 coaching all year round.

Our 1st XI compete in the prestigious England Hockey Tier 1 National competition while our 2nd XI compete at Tier 4.

The school maintains strong links with all of our local clubs as well as the University of East Anglia whose excellent facilities we regularly use.

 

Recent successes:

  • England Hockey Tier 1 National Quarter Finalists 2020 (1st XI)
  • Regional Finalists 2020 (U16)
  • England Hockey Tier 1 National Semi Finalists 2019 (1st XI)
  • Regional Finalists 2019 (U16 & U18)
