Welcome to the University of Otago Hockey Club!

The University of Otago Hockey Club (OUHC) is one of Dunedin's most vibrant and successful university sports clubs – a fun, social, and truly inclusive community where everyone is welcome. Whether you're a seasoned player aiming for premier-level competition, a complete beginner picking up a stick for the first time, or just looking to stay active and make lifelong friends, we've got a spot for you on the turf.

We're proud to be the most successful hockey club in Dunedin, with a rich history of on-field achievements and an unbeatable off-field vibe that keeps members coming back year after year.

Teams for Every Level

We field a wide range of teams to suit all abilities and commitments – no experience necessary!

  • 4 Premier Teams: High-level competitive hockey for those chasing excellence. Trainings on Wednesdays, games on Saturdays.
  • 7 Second Division Teams: The perfect balance of competition and fun. Trainings on Thursdays, games on Saturdays.
  • 4 Third Division Teams: Relaxed and social-focused, ideal for newcomers or casual players. No regular trainings, games on Sundays for a laid-back run around.

No matter your skill level, you'll find a team that fits – and plenty of support to help you improve and enjoy the game.

Our Legendary Social Scene

What sets OUHC apart is our incredible social atmosphere. We're not just a club – we're a family! Throughout the year, we host epic events that bring everyone together:

  • Opening Bonanza: Kick off the season with one of our first events
