A night to celebrate the 22-23 season for the U16s, U18s, & Seniors at Gwent Hockey Club.

On Friday 19th May, the senior awards presentation was held at the Parkway Hotel in Cwmbran. It was great to see so many of our members from across all teams attend to celebrate this season’s success, with everyone looking fabulous in their fancy suits, ties and dresses!

Season 2022-23 had some great highlights including a cup retention for the M1, a cup win for the Boys U16, a league win for the M3, and all ladies teams remaining in their respective leagues.
