 Memberships are LIVE 15 Aug 2022 Hi all You will be pleased to know that memberships for the season are now LIVE- with the usual - standard (membership only) - diamond (includes league matches not training) - platinum (includes league matches & training) packages available. Standard membership & packages can all be signed up for to pay in either one lump sum, or via direct debit using the go cardless option that will be prompted (at no extra cost but spread over 6 months). The earlier you sign up the better, as all normal fees will apply until you sign up. If you do not opt to go for a platinum package it is crucial that you keep an eye on your online account and pay off any debts due each week, why not add it as a weekly calendar reminder. If you don't keep your debts down (below £36) then your captain will not be allowed to select you to play & you will be mentioned at our exec meetings as owing monies to the club. SO ITS VERY IMPORTANT WE ALL KEEP OUR DEBTS AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE If you have any queries or need another payment option please contact Maria the treasurer (accounts@norwichcityhc.co.uk) shes very approachable :)

 Sponsorship Opportunities for 2022/2023 18 Jul 2022 As the Men's and Women's 1st teams start to prepare through July and into August for pre-season for the 2022/2023 league season we are looking to offer a number of sponsorship opportunities for those wishing to get involved in supporting the club and exploring ways to link and promote your business and brand with Norwich City Hockey Club. We are beginning to share details of the sponsorship packages and opportunities available and this will be published and shared shortly, however if you want to know more then please get in touch by emailing sponsorship@norwichcityhc.co.uk and we will be very pleased to discuss things further with you. The Men's 1s will be playing this coming season in the National Conference for the first time in the club's history, our Women's 1s after finishing runners up last season and narrowly missing promotion will continue in the East Premier Division. We also hope to continue our success in the adult and junior National Cup Competitions, with the past two seasons seeing our adult Mixed team winning the Cup in back to back years.
 Norwich City claim Mixed Championship shootout victory over Leeds Beckett University 1 Jul 2022 A memorable Tier 1 mixed final saw Norwich City claim a shootout victory over Leeds Beckett University to seal the title in Lea Valley. Norwich started strongly, with two goals in two minutes handing them the advantage early on. After an end-to-end start, Thomas Cooke's 12th minute strike from a penalty corner and Cameron Cooke's field goal in the 13th minute gave them a significant advantage. However, their lead was halved quickly, Oliver Manson's effort from a penalty corner in the 20th minute opening the scoring for Leeds Beckett University. And, after a strong start to the second period, Manson struck again from a penalty corner in the 43rd minute to level proceedings with just over 25 minutes to go. In an highly-entertaining contest both teams created opportunities to take the lead, but neither could quite convert their chances to seal victory. A dramatic shootout ensued, with fans of both sides vocal in their support in their quest for the title. However it was Norwich City's Cameron Cooke who scored the decisive penalty, sealing the title for his side in the most dramatic of fashion.
