Clubs are invited to enter an U18's mixed team into our inaugural tournament to be held on Sunday 19th March.

After initially approaching local clubs for an opposition for our proposed u18’s mixed hockey team, we received such a great response that we thought we would organise a tournament so we could play everyone and make a real day of it!!

The tournament will take place on Sunday 19th March 2017, with the first push back being at 11:00am. We are hoping to attract a minimum of 8 teams to the event and will host a minimum of 4 x 20 minute games for each team. (The full fixture schedule will be published closer to the event)

Location: Bedford Hockey Club, Chester Road, Queens Park, Bedford MK40 4HL where we have a double astro, changing rooms as well as somewhere to buy tea, coffee and snacks.

The tournament is mixed (11 a-side) competition with teams to comprise of 5 outfield girls, 5 outfield boys and a goalie (plus subs). Bedford will provide umpires for the tournament and there will be prize for winners. It should be a really nice send off for those in the upper 6th leaving for university with the timing set so that it doesn’t impact on exams.

The cost to enter is £100 per team (with cheques made payable to Bedford Hockey Club or you can make a BACS payment). Please email BHC Fixtures Secretary Abi Norris norrisabigail@hotmail.co.uk or call on 07881587504 if you would like to enter a team (or two).

NB- If you have some initial interest from players but not a full team, please also inform us as we may be able to group you together with another team. We look forward to a fantastic day of hockey. www.bedfordhockeyclub.com
