Beeston Hockey Club will always endeavour to support members and their families in times of financial difficulty to allow them to continue playing a sport that we love. If any family feels they need our support then please contact Gareth Griffiths in confidence, email address: gareth.griffiths@beestonhockeyclub.com.

The facilities at Nottingham Hockey Centre are the best in the UK with 2 water based pitches and 3.5 sand based pitches, enabling us to segregate the children into age groups for training.

The clubhouse has a bar providing hot/cold refreshments, with free Wi-Fi that is open during all training sessions, and there are ample parking spaces on site. On a Sunday morning the canteen is also open, providing a breakfast service for parents and children.

You should make arrangements for your child to travel to and from training sessions and matches. Players should have one parent or guardian present at all training and matches (for players up to the age of 12). We appreciate it if children are collected promptly at the end of the session.

If you are going to be late picking your child up, please contact your junior age group manager or Gareth Griffiths (Mobile 07432444902). It is important that children are told to wait within the clubhouse area rather than walking to the busy road at the club entrance. Occasionally sessions finish early if there is a tournament or fixtures taking place at Nottingham Hockey Centre.
