South East Division 1 - East

Tunbridge Wells Women's 1st XI are raring to go this season after having a successful 2022/23 season, just missing out on promotion. Lots of pre-season training has reaped huge rewards with a team that won all their pre-season friendlies convincingly. With the new England Hockey structure, our Women's 1st XI are placed in South East Women’s Division 1 East, with promotion to the Premier Division the goal. This season will see our ladies facing familiar opposition as well as some new teams, an exciting prospect to showcase the talent in the team.

Danny Macro is the 1st team coach and leads the coaching team for the whole of the womens section. A consistent approach to team tactics and match play, understood through all the teams is what he is aiming for and with players he has coached before, this consistency is already apparent.

Tunbridge Wells’ home matches are at Tonbridge School and occasionally Hawkenbury or Kent College Pembury. Training is every Tuesday from 8-10pm at Tonbridge for the Elite squads. Club training is on Wednesdays at Hawkenbury 7:30-9:00pm and our talented players will be spotted here and given opportunity to train with the elite squads by the coaches when they are ready.

This season, fitness trackers are used in matches and in training. The data is analysed and has helped to improve fitness of each player. We want our players to be skilful but to have the stamina and speed needed for the high standard we are demanding.
Our team is made up of a mix of experienced players and talented juniors who have made their way through the junior section of our club and women's teams to reach the pinnacle of the 1st XI.

We are keen to attract all players to the club, and can promise those with talent, dedication, and commitment a chance to play exciting and rewarding hockey.
