Welcome


Old Bristolians' Hockey Club is a thriving and lively hockey club situated in Bristol. We have always been the first choice hockey club for non premier / national league players in the Bristol area. This remains the case but some things have changed! The OBs ethos is obviously working and our Men's 1XI have achieved promotion to Prem hockey for the 2011/2012 season. Our Ladies 1XI also play to a good standard maintaing a strong position in the Central League. We run five men's teams, five women's, a veterans' and a mixed team. We also have a growing Junior section for both boys and girls. The aim of the club is to develop the skills of players of all abilities in a friendly and sociable way. The ethos of the club is to play competitive hockey at a good standard but not to let it get in the way of having a good time! We benefit from great facilities including our own astroturf pitch, with changing facilities and a bar at our clubhouse on Longwood Lane, Failand. If you want to find out more about us, contact David McGinty or Jan Bowen or join us at one of our training sessions.
