Players - this membership is for those who will play hockey, including adults, juniors, minis, and vets. Only children 14yrs or older can register and then apply for Player membership themselves.

Parent - this membership is for anyone who needs to apply for membership for their children. All children under 18 must be rely on their parent or guardian to apply for Parent membership and then add their children as players. It is recommended that parents of new players also contact juniors@southberkshirehockeyclub.org.uk to check for space in the age group. Children over 14 can also register their own Pitchero account and be associated with their Parents. Only parents can provide Safeguarding declarations for their children when they participate in adult hockey.
