Squad Training – Tuesdays 7pm to 9pm – The Leys School

Cambridge South runs professionally coached training sessions for players of all standards, every Tuesday evening from September to April at The Leys School astro pitch. Training is free to attend, the cost covered by your annual membership subscription.

Training is divided into two roughly 1 hour sessions. During the first session the emphasis is on skills and small-group drills. The second session focuses more on teamwork exercises, with some space set aside for regular short corner practise. Men's and ladies' squads each have their own training program with exercises also varied for different ability levels.

Even if you can't make the 7pm start, do come along at whatever time you can as you'll still be able to join in with useful exercises.

If you are a new player to the Club and not yet in a squad then please turn up on any Tuesday, make yourself known, and we will get you involved.

After training, we can be found enjoying a drink (and some very welcome complimentary chips!) around the corner at The Panton Arms.

Pay and Play – Wednesdays 8pm to 9pm – Coldham's Common

As well as structured training the Club also offers a weekly pay-and-play session at the Abbey pitch at Coldham's Common. The session is open to all, you don't have to be a Club member to attend (you can even be a member of another club!), just turn up and play!

Different from training, this is just an opportunity to play a knock-around hour of hockey. We usually play 5 to 7-a-side mixed games on a half pitch. Afterwards a few people can often be found going for a quick drink at The Wrestlers on Newmarket Road.

It's a great way to try out the Club so do come along and join in!
