Hockey has been played in Fleet since before the First World War. In the early days, teams used to travel to away games in a horse and cart provided by Hankins (a hardware merchant located on Fleet High Street opposite Gurkha Square in what is now a public house)! The cart was used primarily as a delivery vehicle by Hankins, but on match days a few chairs were strapped on the back and away they went. How times have changed!

Club activities were suspended during the War years and the Club re-emerged in its present form around 1925. Until very recently, Fleet HC shared clubhouse facilities with Fleet Cricket Club in Calthorpe Park and even played matches on the cricket outfield. However, a period of growth called for additional pitches and the Club established good relationships with the Army, playing at the Officers Mess in Aldershot (now the Potters International hotel). The advent of Astroturf as the ‘standard’ playing surface demanded further evolution and Fleet HC now plays home matches at theArmy Hockey Centre in Aldershot.

On the field, Fleet HC plays competitive league games in the South League, travelling throughout Hampshire to fulfil fixtures. Recent successes such as the 2nd XI Championship season in 2004/05 sit alongside current international honours for England and Wales, plus representation at Hampshire U15 level. Our primary aspiration, however, is as a family friendly club and our Youth Academy aims to reach out to all local children and to provide sporting opportunities for their parents. Now with two adjacent Astroturf pitches at the Club’s disposal, clubhouse facilities close by and a revamped coaching set-up, Fleet HC is the place in the area to play hockey.

Socially –and there’s always asocial side to hockey clubs the world over –the Club sends team to various tours and festivals. Possibly the most ambitious was the 1988 tour to Kenya, but closer to home, teams from Fleet have been regular visitors to the Isle-of-Man, Jersey and Dublin. The Club also runs its own Summer League for players of all ages and standards, allowing even the most inexperienced novice to play alongside international players. And not forgetting the Fleet HC mixed tournament which started in 2006. We hope that you’ll come and join us and look forward to welcoming you to our Club.
