The club used to enter a Mixed team made up of adult men, women and juniors to compete in the Greater Manchester Mixed Hockey League GMMHL. We would play 5 juniors and 5 adult outfield players against other against adult mixed teams. It was designed to teach our age 13+ juniors the 11 a side game, under the guidance of coaches and experienced adult players.
However, as the club continues to grow and the junior section goes from strength to strength we have decided not to enter a mixed team this season. We will insted offer more hockey, by providing numerous age group hockey as well as Beavers and Badgers leagues. There is also player pathway system in place, that has seen our juniors integrated into the senior sides successfully over the past few seasons.
As a club we will review whether to provide mixed hockey on an annual basis.
