TRAINING TIMES:
TRAINING WITH UWMXDHC
Here at Warwick Mixed Hockey Club we want to give our members a chance to improve their hockey ability without it becoming too intense. Our Tuesday session is run by our wonderful coach Luke and will help everyone to get better as a hockey player. Thursday sessions are for our internal rush hockey league and when needed, match practice for our performance team. Our Sunday sessions, run by our Training Secretary, are more casual - with a trip to the pub for a club meal afterwards!
There's a huge range of ability in our club, so we make sure each session has elements everyone can get involved in. We also make sure to play a good combination of friendly and competitive matches – so whether you are a casual or a competitive player we have something for you.
Never picked up a stick before? No worries! We spilt our training sessions into different groups based on ability and confidence. We will provide hockey sticks, however, we do recommend having a decent pair of trainers, some shin pads and a mouth guard if you want to play competitively for us!
At the start of term one we will be running free taster sessions which everyone is welcome to attend. Keep an eye out on the club's social media for more info!

commitment to uwmxdhc
Unlike most other University Sports teams, we do not require mandatory attendance at our training sessions. If you join our club and can't make a couple of training sessions, no worries! We understand that you are not at university to just play hockey, you're here to study too!
Even if you miss a couple of training sessions, this won't prevent you from playing competitively for us. We choose our competitive match teams on a voluntary basis and we have no team trials, so if you want to play in a match just let our training secretary know!

UWMXDHC HAS NO TRIALS OR INITIATIOnSWe believe that university sports teams should be an inclusive, friendly and supportive environment. Therefore, we are one of the few sports teams at Warwick University that has no trials or initiations- making us a truly inclusive club.

SOCIALS WITH
|
|
Throughout the year we have many exciting socials, from bar crawls to trampolining we make sure there's something for everyone in our social timetable. Most weeks we head to the SU's weekly club night POP! where we dress in some crazy outfits and "circle" in The Copper Rooms. Circling is a Warwick uni tradition and here at UWMXDHC we take it very seriously. We can't give too much away unless you join us, but have a look at our social guide to see some basic rules.
Drinking not your thing? Don't worry! As well as our weekly circles, we also have many "sober socials" where we get together for activities such as trampolining, club curry night, paint-balling or going to see an ice-hockey game!
All of our socials are run by our lovely social secs Charlotte Ganney and Gigi Kerr. If you have any questions about socials, feel free to message them!
