Bradford Hockey Club was established in 1894 and is affiliated to the Yorkshire Hockey Association. In October 2005 we were the first hockey club in West Yorkshire to achieve Clubs1st Accreditation from England Hockey. This recognises that Bradford Hockey Club is committed to providing and maintaining a Safe, Effective and Child Friendly club environment and is valid for 3 years. This was renewed in February 2010 and all our volunteers are working hard maintaining this accreditation under the latest England Hockey and Sport Englands guidelines. We are also ClubMark accredited - the SportEngland mark of high quality junior clubs.

We are a large, friendly and well established club, and with three senior teams, a development team, and junior teams at U21, U18, U16, U14, U13, U12, U11 and U10 levels, we have hockey for everybody.

Senior mens training is on Wednesday evenings from 8:00pm-9:30pm for fitness and hockey skills on the astroturf pitch at Thornton Grammar School.

Junior training for youngsters of all ages is provided. Mixed sessions for new starters and U10/U12 boys & girls are on Tuesday evenings from 7:00 to 8:00pm at the astroturf pitch at Bradford Girls Grammar School. Intermediate U12/U14/U16 mixed sessions for boys & girls are provided at the Thornton Astro on Wednesdays from 7:00 to 8:00pm. In addition we also cater for mixed boys & girls hockey with Yorkshire Youth League fixtures on Sunday mornings.
