Performance Squads (Stick and Ball + some fitness) - Saturdays 10.00am - 12noon

Attendance is key as we start on the road to an exciting and ambitious season with promotion restructured across the various National and Regional leagues to accommodate the changes to the National League from 2019-20. There are also key promotion spots up for grabs for the 2's and other teams in NWHL and CWHL as the divisions will re-structure all the way down to manage the changes in the National League.

So a big season for the club, squads and all the players - but success will only come with hard work, focus and commitment from now til the final whistle so lets get on it !

Please email timperleyhc@gmail.com - if you need a shirt number allocating to avoid duplication. Playing shirts are provided for ALL senior teams - but we know more and more players prefer their own club shirt. White THC away strip shirts can also be ordered.

Sponsorship, advertising and donations

Fund-raising will have a new twist this season are we not only need to raise funds to support the delivery of hockey (as subs and match fees only cover part of the costs of delivering all the hockey we offer).

We've a new flier being produced to promote the full range of sponsorship and advertising options we will be sharing soon - with new options ranging from £50 - so if you work for or know of any businesses who you can ask to support THC and hockey at the club help us with an introduction - we'll provide all the information you need.
