With two EH trophies already in the bag in 2018 the draws are in for this season's EH championships - check out the THC teams in action

This season we have entered 13 teams in the EH Championships and in the spring our Under 10 and 12 Boys and Girls will compete in the EH Mini's

The EH Championships give the opportunity for cup hockey and the opportunity of reaching national finals - and we're building a good track record having reached four nationals finals in the last two season - O50 men (twice), O35 women and O30 and one in 2012 (U14 Boys). We are current holders of the Men's Over 050s Tier 3 trophy and of the Women's Over 30's Summer Championships.

All EH matches are played on a Sunday's so it an ideal opportunity to come down and support the THC teams in action and we've got lots of games coming up over the next few weeks - with a bumper day on Sunday 4th November with four home and three away games.

We need level 1 umpires for all games so this is a real call out to all our un-assessed level 1 umpires to help share the games on the Saturday so that our regular Level 1 umpires ideally don't have to umpire on both days. If you've done the EH Level 1 course (and THC paid your fee - please have a chat to Will Reynolds or Nick Burnett to get yourself some of the academy Saturday games to start to get some umpiring practice - this is really important as it free's up the level 1 umpires from umpiring twice on a Saturday.

The EH Championships games are managed by EH on via their own website - we will also load on Pitchero but do check the EH site for accurate and up to date information on times, venues etc
