About
We were born in 2012. Conceived in Cheltenham by one individual’s passion for Hockey and Sport. With over 10 years playing experience at the top levels, Matthew Fairburn represented England at Junior level and a number of National League Clubs, it was time to share that love of Hockey to children.
​
Our aim, then as now, was to inspire youngsters, with highly qualified and experienced coaches, and to involve Junior Internationals to show younger players what’s achievable.
And here we are some 9 years later, still inspiring ever changing to meet tomorrow’s challenges. We’ve evolved, we’ve grown, children have come and gone, we continue to deliver Hockey Camps for 7 years up to the budding 15 year old international to be.
