About Evesham & Badsey
We started playing hockey in Evesham in 1900. We’re proud of history and 110 years later we’re still going strong developing the club and our players.
We currently run three Senior sides – two Men’s league sides and a Ladies’ league side, who both play on Saturdays and train on Tuesday evenings. We also have a Mixed side who play friendly matches.
We have a thriving Junior section for young players aged from 6 to 16 who progress through the Cubs (age 6+) to Juniors (aged 8 to 12) and onto the Badgers (from 11 to 16) as their skills develop.
All of our Junior sides allow our young players to develop their hockey skills in a friendly, supportive environment against other similarly skilled players. When they’re ready they move up through the Juniors and onto the Senior teams.
Coach Andy Osbourne, imaginatively known as ‘Oz’, who’s rarely without a smile. Or a coffee.

"I love playing hockey at Evesham and Badsey"
Dylan, 13, Badgers
“I used to play rugby at school but I kept getting injured and I had to give up. I was looking for another sport but didn’t want to play football.
I thought I’d come and see what hockey was like and now I love it. It’s great fun, the coaches are amazing, and I like playing in a mixed team with boys and girls. Oh and I’ve scored three goals this season!”
