FOLLOWING a highly successful 2016/17 season, which saw Bude Hockey Club women’s side gain promotion to the South Division in the West Clubs Women’s League and the men’s side narrowly missing out on promotion from the highly competitive Southern 2 division of The GoCrea8 Hockey League, both teams are desperately looking to strengthen their squads ahead of the new season.

Despite their success, both teams are heading into the new season looking a little thin on the ground and are in need of extra players to make each squad capable of competing in the league.

Training has begun in earnest and take places every Wednesday 7.30pm on the astroturf pitch at Budehaven School with matches on Saturdays, which start soon.
