See you all when senior training starts again on Wednesday January 7th 2015 at 19.30 at Whitchurch Leisure Centre.
Social event – Kilts & Ceilidh night – Friday January 23rd 2015 – Open to all.
Open to all, so bring family & friends and join us in our pre-Burns Night celebration.
Featuring piper, Ceilidh band, haggis, dancing and kilts – although not necessarily in that order!
It promises to be a wonderful evening to help banish those mid-winter blues, and we hope you can make it along. There was a great atmosphere at the recent quiz night, and that was without any whiskey or sporran jokes!
Attached is a flyer with all the details – let us know if you’re planning to come, so we can reserve you tickets.

Whitchurch hockey match reports 06/12/14
The weather decimated the weekends fixtures with both the Men’s Fathom and ladies 1s cancelled due to frozen pitches the only game to go ahead was the Ladies 2s away at Golborne 2s.
Golborne ladies 2s 2 Whitchurch ladies 2s 1
The game started poorly as the Whitchurch keeper was delayed in traffic and Golborne took the lead as she padded up.
Ellie Windsor, Phoebe Jones and Laura Workman worked tirelessly in the midfield and defence and Whitchurch were rewarded when Jess Kimberley scored an equaliser to bring Whitchurch back into the game.
Whitchurch were not happy when in the final minutes of the game they felt their goalkeeper was fouled allowing Goborne to convert the winner.
The Academy at Whitchurch continues to go from success to success producing players representing the county with Maddie Sugden getting into the Shropshire Under13 squad as goalkeeper, Jess Kimberley at Under 17, Emily Hilton at Under 15 and Hebe Dixon at Under 13’s.
