Knutsford Hockey Club

Knutsford Hockey Club is a friendly, supportive community field hockey club in Cheshire offering competitive league matches under England Hockey and regular social events. They field multiple men’s, women’s, and development teams playing in the North West divisions.

KHC has a significant junior section with a dedicated team holding training sessions during the season for different age groups on Tuesday evenings at Knutsford leisure centre. The club has also engaged with Knutsford Academy to hold regular sessions at the school with the aim of encouraging younger players to get involved in hockey. The senior squads are benefiting from this as juniors and intermediates develop and compete for places in the senior teams.

2nd Knutsford Scouts

2nd Knutsford is one of the smaller scout groups in Knutsford District. The leaders across our four sections work closely together and thus we create a distinct family feel to our group. We provide indoor and outdoor adventurous activities for our young people aged 4 to 14 years old. We are very pleased to be the first scout group in Knutsford District to host a Squirrel section (4-6 years old). We meet in the Cross-Town Scouts Hut and are proud of our strong links with St. Cross Church, St. John’s Wood, Tatton Park, Cross Town Community Orchard, Knutsford Fire Station, Manor Park School and Knutsford Indoor Market. We also try to use the district scout minibus to get out to activities outside of Knutsford.

Our sections are led by well trained, experienced and dedicated volunteer leaders who are keen to organise exciting programmes for every meeting and event. These include hikes, visits, parades and camps etc. Help from young leaders and parents/carers is always welcomed. To make our programme engaging we listen to, and encourage our young people, to share their ideas for activities. We also benefit from taking part in events organised by Knutsford District Scouts such as parades, campfires, orienteering days and climbing.
