Welcome to Avon Hockey Club!

The Avon Hockey Club is situated in the eastern suburbs of Christchurch, however we draw members from all over the city We also welcome out of town students studying at Lincoln & Canterbury Universities and ARA Polytechnic.

We offer hockey to players of all abilities from a keen beginner to experienced and representative players. Although the game is important to us, it's not just about the hockey. The Avon Hockey Club prides itself on its family environment.
