Welcome to Gore Court Hockey Club in Sittingbourne, Kent where we have been playing hockey since 1908.  We currently field five mens teams and two ladies teams as well as junior teams in the U8, U10. U12 and U14 age groups.

We pride ourselves on our past and recent success including ten league titles in the last eight years which filters down to all levels of the club.

Our clubhouse is situated at the picturesque Grove playing fields and you will find our pitch at the nearby Westlands School.  We cater for all ages and abilities so whether you are a youngster looking for your first experience in hockey or an experienced player looking to come back to hockey, Gore Court is the place for you.

LADIES' 1XI WIN KENT PLATE 

​

The Ladies' 1XI have won the Kent Plate by beating Sevenoaks 4XI 3-1 at Holcombe Park.  A battling display saw them take an early lead and they were two goals to the good at half time.  A closer second half saw the game end up with the 3-1 scoreline to finish off a successful season after their third place finish in the Kent Premier Division.  Congratulations to captain Gaby Ollerenshaw and the team along with coaches Harrison Reynolds and Josh Moore on your success.
