From their 13th birthday players can begin the transition into Adults hockey and from 15-18 years of age will train with one of our adults teams based on their ability and experience.

As a family-oriented club, our aim is to balance inclusion and access with performance, to enable every player to achieve their goals at whatever level they aspire.

Our Junior Pathway provides further detail on the progression of all young players through Bromsgrove Hockey Club.
