International festival brings hockey to a standstill … this happens every year!

The adverts on the TV, for well known high street and online stores, signal the approach of Christmas. During this time hockey takes a break so that you can spend time … with your family. League games come to a temporary break so training may as well too.

League Games

The final games of 2018, though not the 2018 / 2019 hockey season take place on December the 8th, with the Mens 4s and Development sides simultaneously playing the final games with 4:30pm starts.

Senior Hockey Training

The final formal training will be on the week commencing 3rd of December, so the Mens will be training on Tuesday the 4th. The Ladies’ training session for this week has been moved to Wednesday the 5th, due to the Christmas Market.

There will be a fun Christmas Adult Mixed session on Monday the 10th of December, from 7-830pm.

Senior hockey training resumes on the 8th of January, 2019.

Junior Hockey Training

Saturday morning Junior Training undergoes an on/off relationship with the astro turf. It takes a break for the Lincoln Christmas Market, on the 8th of December (see below), and then the session on December the 15th is the final one before Christmas.

Saturday mornings will resume on January the 12th, 2019.

Wednesday evening Junior Training finishes at the end of the session on November the 28th.
