University of Derby Men's Hockey Club

What a win for the boys today!! Potentially one of our biggest of the season, with all three goals coming from freshers who joined in September what more could you ask for. The final minute was one of the most manic I’ve ever seen with the opposition scoring a short corner with 45 seconds remaining for it then to be disallowed and then as soon as we get the ball, we get it to a fresher at the other end who slots the ball home with 2 seconds remaining. Well done lads and congrats on the big win!!!

Fancy a social? We’ve got you covered!
We love a good water pitch so teamed up with University of Derby Swim Team and Derby Woman’s Hockey for a PJ party! .

It’s Freshers Fair! Come on down to the Sports Center and say hi!
