All teams get to play on the Olympic stadium pitch at least once a year with the higher teams playing there more frequently.
Teas.
We host post game teas in both locations.
Teas at Lee Valley are in the centre café (upstairs) so those playing typically eat, grab a drink, and stay to watch more hockey in the stadium seats.
Teas in Wapping are hosted at The Moretown Belle (5 Thomas More St, London, E1W 1YW).
