Camps, Clinics & 1:1s
Extra hockey, coached the EGHC way. Day camps in the school holidays, focused skills clinics and one-to-one sessions with our coaches — all on our own pitches in East Grinstead, open to members and friends of the club, with member pricing for EGHC members.
One season. Five blocks. One journey.
Our Academy year isn't a set of one-off camps. It's one connected programme in five holiday blocks, and each block pairs a camp with clinics on the same theme. Every block builds on the one before. Skills learnt in October are tested under pressure at Christmas, taken into game play in spring and turned into goals by June. Players can dip in to any block, but the biggest gains come from making the whole journey.

Coming in 2027Each block builds on the last
The themes run in order, from owning the ball to reading the game to finishing it, so every block starts from what the last one taught.
Camps and clinics, one theme
Every camp has linked clinics on the same skills, so players can go deeper on exactly what they've just been working on.
Dip in, or go all in
Any block works on its own. Join all five and your player gets a full season of joined-up coaching, with every skill coming back again under more pressure.
What a camp day looks like
Every camp follows the same shape: coached technique in the morning, a video session after lunch and competitive games all afternoon. What changes is the content, block by block. Pick a block to see what your player will work on.
Play through pressure
Keep the ball when defenders close in, make the right call and finish in the D.
Rage cage 5v5
Every time the ball goes out, a feeder plays a new one straight in. No breaks, constant pressure and quick decisions.

Coached by our first team
Sessions are run by the EGHC Academy coaching team, alongside our first-team players.
A video room, like the pros
After lunch, players break down clips from international, club and junior hockey in small groups.
Scored to build habits
Games award points for first-time finishes, give-and-gos and back-space shots, so the habits we coach are the ones that win.
Never standing still
Our house rule is no static passing or receiving, and every drill builds to a game under pressure.
Pick the format that suits your player
Everything here sits alongside a player's regular club training. Choose a full day of hockey, a short, sharp clinic on one skill, or dedicated time with a coach.
