Camberley and Farnborough Hockey Club
The Colts are an active part of Camberley and Farnborough Hockey Club. Training takes place every Sunday morning between 10.00am and 11.30pm at the CGC Astro Pitch at Kings International School (previously France Hill School), Watchetts Drive, Camberley.
We run 8 colts teams starting at under 10's, which is mixed boys and girls group, through to under 18's level.We welcome any children from 5 or 6 year olds upwards, and invite all to come and "have a go". We offer a free, without obligation, introduction period of 3 weeks for youngsters to come and see what's the game is all about and to see if they enjoy it. The essential equipment consists of trainers and shin-pads; we will provide the stick and the fun, a mouth guard is also recommended. Parents are encouraged to stay and help if they wish.
Please contact the Colts Chairman if you need any further information - or just come along any Sunday morning, just check with the coach appropriate as we do have matches as the season progresses. We do ask the Colts make sure they have a drink and protection particularly against the cold and the rain - it is important as this is a winter sport that they are able to keep themselves warm and dry. Do not forget sun screen protection when appropriate. .
The 'main' club also currently runs 6 men's teams and 3 ladies teams, and our older colts are encouraged to 'play up' in the Senior matches on Saturdays, and join in the adult training sessions held each Wednesday evening.
Hockey is a great game with many tactical similarities to soccer, unfortunately as it is not extensively taught in schools, which is a shame as many miss the opportunity to experience the joys of playing an exciting team sport, however, in an attempt to counter this we are involved in coaching in local schools, which includes organising an annual Junior Schools Tournament. Coaching is also arranged on behalf of Surrey Heath Borough Council for the annual Surrey Youth Games.
Here at Camberley and Farnborough we want all our colts to enjoy their involvement and have fun. We encourage the participation, teamwork, fair play and sportsmanship of the game and encourage all members to join in and play in the inter club matches. Hockey has a system of "rolling substitutes" so all player's will have some part in the game. We look forward to seeing you all on Sunday mornings!!
