WARWICK HOCKEY CLUB

In between the various Warwick concerts in July this year, the Sports Club is holding an outdoor summer music event on Friday July 17th from 6.30pm

There will be two superb, tried & tested bands performing an eclectic collection of "soft rock & pop" during the evening, firstly From Dusk Till Dawn followed later by The Earl Grey Band with interludes from Tricky Dickies Disco

There will be various catering options on offer, a marquee and outside bar as well as the clubhouse one, so the atmosphere should be Glastonbury-esque without the mud we hope!! We have been granted free car parking at the race course car park across the road.

All ages welcome, U14's accompanied by an adult please. Entry is by ticket only (There is NOW also "on the gate" entry) and these are available from Dom Simpson, your social secretaries Alex and Loz or from your captains, priced £12.50

Our target is 100 tickets so please invite family and friends and let's make this special event a massive summer success!! So why not get a group of friends together and sign up here and we will contact you.

Next season there will be some new rules introduced that will make a significant difference to the game. The full text of the rules can be found on the FIH web site but reading rules written down is seldom as clear has having it explained.

Fortunately UNSW Hockey Club have made a video to try and explain the new rules for players and umpires at club level. It goes through the new rules and how they apply in detail and we would recommend that you watch it several times before the start of the new season.

As announced at the awards night at the weekend, congratulations go to Tom for winning the second WHC Fantasy League! Plaudits also go to Claudio's giant ducks for securing both second and third place.

Chris Sampson tops the individual standings, despite an enormous personal points tally for John Macdonald in the last week of the season.

Look forward to much head scratching next season as you work out how you're going to afford anyone playing for this year's victorious Men's 4th team!

We'll be putting together some thoughts on some new rules for next season. Watch this space!

A couple of new developments for your consideration!

We've agreed to enter two teams into both the Mens and the Ladies Summer Leagues (that's four teams in total!). Please sign up for either the Mens or Ladies if you're interested in taking part!

On a less prosaic level, we're also considering taking a touring party to Barbados in 2010! Click here for details but what's not to like? Plenty of time to save the necessary cash for what promises to be the hockey trip of a lifetime!

Just remember, if you are considering using an online retailer for any purpose (insurance, purchases, quotes or anything) then please check out whether they are listed on our Buy At web shop.

There are lots of good companies & shops listed, such as Amazon, Littlewoods, Marks&Spencer, HMV, Play.com, Mothercare, Next, Endsleigh, Expedia and Zurich to name but a few.

If you purchase office products for your company then why not try out one of the retailers on our webshop and see how their prices compare against your usual suppliers?

It will cost you nothing more, but the retailers give the hockey club commission on purchases, so it is an easy way of helping us to raise funds. Put "www.buy.at/warwickhockey" in your bookmarks or click below to find out more.
