Chippenham is a growing club with a local
reputation for friendliness, hockey played in a good spirit and commitment
to the future.
Our club prides itself on having our own Astroturf pitch next to a
new state of the art clubhouse. No other club in the area can boast
this. Chippenham has remained a traditional, sociable club and we enjoy
entertaining our visitors. We run 3 Men's league sides with an occasional
4th, There is a Vets
side who have a number of friendly fixtures during the year
plus
entry
in the Veterans Cup. A new development is that of a “Badgers” team
who are entered into a league. This is where we are able to
give competitive games to the junior players who cannot play in the
Gerrard
League.
We also run 2 highly successful summer league teams. We also run a
mixed team and 4 ladies teams including a ladies veterans team. Another difference is that we run a pay as you play subscription scheme.
There is a small up front registration charge for the league
and then a slightly increased match fee. We found that with a lot of
members
from the armed forces and many members with families unable to
commit for a whole season that this was a better way to charge
