About Us
Bristol Ladies Hockey Club has been bringing women's hockey to North Bristol since the 1990s. Back then, the club ran three teams, trained at Failand, and operated with a pretty ruthless selection process, cliques, power struggles, and all the drama that comes with it.
A lot has changed since then.
Today we're a single-squad club, and we think that's something to be proud of. We're competitive, we work hard, and we're always looking to improve, but we do it together, with a genuine team spirit that's hard to find elsewhere.
A club shaped by its people
Clubs like ours don't survive three decades by accident.
They survive because of people who pour themselves into them; players who become coaches, umpires, organisers, and the kind of people who host cheese and wine evenings and hot tub socials just to keep the team together off the pitch.
A thank you to Linda Prosser
We recently said a heartfelt (though not final!) farewell to our coach, Linda, who has dedicated 30 years to this club as a player, coach, umpire, and goalkeeper. Her message to us was simple, but it perfectly captured our philosophy.
focus on the fun, celebrate individual achievement and remember that what you put into a club, it gives back tenfold.
That spirit lives on in everything we do
