- Play twice a week: Wednesday (BUCS) and Saturday (MRHA)

- And so much more
You’ll be hard pushed to find a more welcoming club within Warwick Sport, and our 4 teams can cater for all abilities from complete beginners to international players, so whatever your ability, there is a place for you within the UWMHC.
Performance sport
The UWMHC is a silver tier performance sport which means we get extra funding for top quality coaching and specially tailored strength and conditioning plans provided by Warwick Sport. As a high level performance sport we are a destination for top athletes and coaches alike. If you are a National League player or International 11 aside player you may be eligible for a performance sports scholarship!
Events this season...
We offer a broad range of social events, often partnered with the Ladies club, that set our club above the rest. We have big things planned for this year, including brilliant domestic and foreign tours so you do not want to miss out! If you don't drink don't worry, we encourage moderation and completely accommodate non-drinkers as we believe that no individual choice or characteristic should prevent somebody from playing our sport! We even have a partnership with a non-alcoholic beverage company so you can join in any social and not feel as if you are missing out!
Preseason
Preseason consists of the 4 weeks leading up to the first week of term, and is open to all current and prospective club members regardless of ability. Any new players are welcome and will be accomodated in Leamington Spa. If you are interested in attending, just get in contact with our Club Captain who will sort things out for you. Each year we go on preseason tour to a different location, playing hockey and socialising as a club. Past locations include Loughborough, Nottingham and London.
