Junior Hockey at Old Reigatian HC

Our Junior players are incredibly valued at Old Reigatians with our 1XI made up almost entirely of players who began as juniors 10+ years ago. We welcome anyone aged 13 years and older of all abilities!

Training Matches & Development

We offer juniors the chance to play alongside adults rather than having a separate coach and matches.

This is because:

  1. They get many more competitive games (20+) than in local junior leagues (approx. 10)
  2. They develop faster with the opportunity to try different positions on the pitch and different levels of hockey
  3. Multiple experienced players are able to mentor and coach them as a collective rather than leaving this to one junior specific coach
  4. It builds their maturity and character to spend time amongst all ages and builds the family focus of our club with parents and juniors playing together

Testimonies from Parents

What stood out about ORHC was that it was 13+ and only adult teams. This really appealed to [my son] and was quite different to [alternative local club] where [my son] would have played in the junior section with no guarantee of any matches. [ORHC] were very responsive and friendly too - really encouraging. So - we then came to the session in the summer - and [my son] loved the atmosphere. The chaps were friendly, encouraging and included [my son] in passes and moves from day 1 - that team spirit was what won us over. He has felt so supported and valued - which is incredible.
We are based in Reigate so we started to look for a team in Reigate for him to join and you guys were so friendly and welcoming and understood that [my son] hadn’t played much hockey before, so we joined - he’s enjoying himself and making good progress.

Finances

We charge £35 for a junior membership, which is a fraction of other local offers, this includes matchday insurance and all training sessions. This comes out at less than £1.50 a training session with 24 each season! It's then £5 a match which includes a meal afterwards.
