Bringing your children to mini hockey at Lewes is a great way to introduce them to hockey.
Training for the 2024-25 season starts on Sunday, 1st September where we offer qualified coaches, structured training sessions and full on fun! But most importantly we aim to provide the best environment to give children every opportunity to fulfil their potential and create a life long relationship with one of the greatest sports in the world.

Why bring my children to Lewes?
We are very lucky to have been sponsored with some new goalie helmets for the mini section of the club by Guardian Pro Mouthguards. Many thanks to them!
