WELCOME TO THE WELLINGTON COLLEGE HOCKEY CLUB

Wellington College has a strong hockey tradition with the first teams being formed in 1936.  Since then, Wellington College teams have enjoyed considerable success in the local competitions, with teams often making the top four in their competition grade. We usually have 5 or 6 teams competing in the various grades, and all are well supported with excellent coaching and managers.

The 1st XI play in the Premier 1 grade and attend Rankin Cup/India Shield; the 2nd XI play in the Premier 2 grade and attend the Galletly Cup tournament for 2nd XIs.  We also select an U15 fixture team to contest the local Miskimmin Cup, the traditional against Palmerston North Boys' High School and New Plymouth Boys High School, as development opportunities.

Many senior players achieve their school Honours through hockey. We also achieve significant representation at the Wellington rep hockey level, and some players go on to achieve high levels of hockey beyond College sport.
