Swansea University Hockey Club is an all inclusive club, whether you're an international or if you've never played before and would like to just give it a go there is a team for you! Swansea University Men's and Women's Hockey Clubs were established in 1920 as two of the founding sports at Swansea University. Starting with only one side each, the clubs have grown significantly, now boasting eight teams and a large social community.
In 2018, a merger between Swansea University Men's Hockey Club, Swansea University Ladies Hockey Club, Swansea City and Spartans, created Swansea Hockey Club.
We have 3 Men's teams and 3 Ladies teams which compete in BUCS, 4 Men's teams and 4 Ladies teams playing in weekend leagues, and an uni-intamural league playing on Tuesdays.
In the 2022/23 season we scored highest out of all the sports clubs on the Uni's matrix scoring board. Which means we are the best in Swansea Uni!
Socials
The club has one of the largest social lives within the university, having weekly Wednesday socials with various themes for the evening.
There are a variey of club events over the year including our welcoming event 'Freshers' Families', an Easter 'Tour' where we've visted Croatia and Catalonia in the past. One of the largest and most memorable events of our calendar is 'Old Boy's Weekend', where 100+ veteran players come back for 2 days and compete in Sport Swansea's largest Old Boys event.
We now have a social membership available to buy, so you can join our socials, even if you don't want to play! With a social membership you get free entry to Peppermint (and discounted drinks), Kon Tikis and Pop World! Socials start at 19.00 every Wednesday. All of this is included in the 'standard hockey membership' if you are a playing member.
