Colchester Hockey Club

Our juniors are split into 4 camps, with our Under 8 Gladiators and Under 10 Romans sessions running 9-10am on Sundays September- Mid March.

As a great introduction to team sports, we work in mixed ability to encourage team work and love of the sport.





Our next levels are our Under 12 Saxons, running 10-11 Sunday mornings, and Under 14 Centurians, running 10-11:30.

Starting to establish skills and positions, we become more structured in coaching and understanding game play

As we move through the age groups, we change how we coach, adapting to skill levels and individual players, with some ready for county and introductions to our adult teams. We work with you as the adult and your junior member to help decide what is right for them.

With DBS checked adults, and an established Welfare channel, we maintain a safe and inclusive environment for our young people.

And as a final note for our parents and guardians, you have a big part to play as well!

Be supportive, if you have a concern let one of the coaching or club leadership team know. We want you and your junior to have the most positive start to their sporting journey with us!

We are pleased to announce the 2026/27 season Club Day date!

BACK TO HOCKEY IS BACK!

Join us from Thursday 6th August between 19:00 and 19:30 to come and join in with some hockey.

So if you are over 13 and want to come for some back to hockey then drop us a message or reach out via the contacts in the image and we will get you set up!

We spent yesterday at The Tendring Show and had such a great time!

We got to talk to loads of people, introduce lots of children to hockey, and remind a few adults about what a great sport hockey is!

There was some lovely arguments about who got to try on the goal keeper kits next and be shot at, some fun races across the grass, and lots of stickers given out.

We got to have a good wander round the show though we didn't manage to see all of it, and try out lots of activities (Mindy I remind you again, no you cannot take up baseball 😂😂)

It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our former Club Chairman, Bryan Patterson.

​Bryan was at the heartbeat of Colchester Hockey Club for decades. With well over thirty years of dedicated service to the club, he proudly steered us through major milestones—including leading us as Chairman during our historic Centenary year in 2008.

​Bryan passionately believed that hockey should welcome members from "all walks of life" and create a friendly atmosphere where people could make lifelong friends. He championed our youth development and Sunday morning coaching, ensuring the next generation fell in love with the sport just as he did.

​His dedication, warmth, and leadership shaped the club we are today. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, and everyone in the CHC community who knew him.

​Rest in peace, Bryan.
