DROITWICH Spa Hockey Club is hoping for another successful season following promotion for three of its teams last time around.

In March, the Men's First XI clinched the DTZ West Midlands division one championship and are preparing for life in the premier division from September.

The men's third XI and ladies' second XI also gained promotion from their respective leagues.

The club routinely fields four men's and three ladies' sides on Saturdays. It also has a strong junior section with teams ranging from U10 to U18 and will again field a 'Badgers' team (mixed juniors & senior players).

Home games are played on the astroturf at Droitwich Spa Leisure Centre, in Briar Mill and training is on Wednesday's between 6.30pm and 7.30pm for juniors and until 8.30pm for Seniors.
