You don't have to work for the Phillips Factory in Eindhoven to play for PSV.
Equally, you don't have to be a former pupil of Madras College to play for Madras College FP (former pupils) hockey club. I am living proof of it.
We train on a Thursday at 1900-2000 at the Astroturf at the Athletic Union. The age range is about 13-60, though the core of players are in their 20s-30s. We have a number of present pupils of Madras College playing as well, so there is a positive learning attitude at the club.
We have three teams. the Men's first and Second XIs play in the same regional league, with the first competing for the title and the seconds fighting for mid-table.
the Women have won the title in the past three seasons, and narrowly missed out on the treble last season. (incidentally, they spanked St Andrews Uni 14-0 ) as you might guess, they play and train to a high standard.
If you want to play competitive hockey in a fun and welcoming environment, come along to training.
A number of our players have left school and gone to university, so there are places up for grabs in the mens first and second teams.
If you are interested you can come along to training and find more out for yourself. I will happy to answer any questions that anybody has about the club.
