London Wayfarers Hockey Club was founded in August 1989 in Battersea, South West London.

We have gone from strength to strength since our beginnings and are now one of the largest hockey club in the UK with over 1,500 members.

We currently have more than 400 senior members in 18 senior sides (eight men’s, nine women’s and a mixed team) and our Back to Hockey programme.

In January 2010 we introduced our Junior section and membership surpassed the 1,000 mark in the 2019-20 season with many girls and boys joining us. We regularly field seventeen 11-a-side teams across five age groups with many more playing at festivals. The intention is for juniors to transfer to our senior teams and continue to represent London Wayfarers Hockey Club at a higher level. In the 2018-19 season we had our first junior playing for our Women’s 1s and since we have many more players joining senior teams.

The standard of hockey we play varies widely throughout the club. Our highest teams being performance based at a competitive level to more social orientated hockey further down the club.

We are conscious that most of the members play hockey for fun and therefore aim to provide an inclusive environment with a great hockey experience for all our members.

We also offer midweek junior performance training sessions in Battersea. Our very popular GK Academy runs several sessions per week catering for 50+ goalies with a professional coaching set up.
