About
Welcome to Witham Hockey Club, we are a family-friendly yet competitive club based in Essex within the town of Witham. Established in 1924 we've had the joy of more than one-hundred year of hockey in Witham and the surrounding areas. We currently have five Mens teams and two Ladies teams that regularly play league games during the season. We also have a Juniors Section where we coach youths between the ages of 4-13 from the town and neighbouring areas as well as enter multiple juniors tournaments throughout the season. We also boast a strong O55s vets team that play semi-regularly throughout the season and within tournaments, plus this season we'll be looking expand our offerings by re-introducing mixed and indoor to Witham!

Further to this we're a very social club with a large number of socials at our clubhouse throughout the season. We're a very friendly bunch who have been known to make very good use of our bar... Even on non-social nights you'll often find the clubhouse filled with a large number of players and members catching up whilst celebrating (or less often commiserating) a great day of hockey.

If you'd like to join us, no matter your skill or experience, we'd love to hear from you. Please use our Contact page to drop us a message.

Fixtures
The 2026/27 season fixtures have been announced, the first league matches start on Saturday 12th September 2026. As Easter 2027 will be on Sunday 28th March which, when coupled with how Saturdays fall and dates reserved for the England Hockey Championships, presents a problem in fitting in 22 weekends between the end of September and the Easter weekend.

Based on feedback the East League Committee, came to the conclusion that the "least bad" option is to start the season a week earlier than normal on 12th September in order to allow us to be finished prior to the Easter break rather than have to schedule games following a two week break in April.
