FIXTURES & RESULTS
This season, Potters Bar have entered three teams into the East Hockey League. This is a tremendous achievement for a club that only reformed a few years ago and throughout the 2005/2006 season were struggling to get one team out.
The 1st XI play in Division 5 South West, the 2nd XI play in Division 8 South West and the 3rd XI in Division 9 South West.
All three teams play their home games at Dame Alice Owen's School, a ground they share with the other hockey sub-section of Potters Bar Cricket Club, the Potters Bar Ladies hockey team.
