A huge congratulations to our team of Juniors who will be running Ball Patrol at the Men's Gold Medal Cup Match in the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

A squad of BHC's junior players has been selected to perform ball patrol duties at this year's Commonwealth Games in Birmingham and we couldn't be prouder!

The passionate group impressed the FIH (International Federation of Hockey) committee at their practice sessions held during the FIH's #ProLeague games at London's Lee Valley Hockey Centre last week.

As a result they have been awarded the top billing in the rota, and will be performing their important role during the Men's Gold Medal Cup Match at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games - you can see them in action on Monday 8th August!

As well as particpating in the training sessions at Lee Valley, they also had the honor of flag bearing at the opening of the Men's #FIHProLeague Game England vs Belgium over the weekend!..

You can check out our recent videos of the young squad in action over on our facebook page @BromsgroveHC - where you can also join us in giving them a huge round of applause (like and comment the latest post) to join us in celebrating their fantastic achievement!!

We'd also like to take this opportunity to say a GREAT BIG THANK YOU to all who donated to our earlier fundraising efforts this summer to help us provide transport for the team down to Lee Valley (read the article here). Added to that, we're especially grateful to all our parent coordinators who helped organize the logistics to make this all possible!!
