Pushing for Promotion

Last week a huge 1-0 win for the M8 over East London saw them become the 4th Wapping team at the top of their respective tables pushing for promotion as we come to the business end of the season joining the M1, L1 and L6 who are all in tightly contested fights for the top spot.

Read on to find out how you can raise recognition for some fab women across the club, some dates for your calendar and an update from one of our team sponsor’s.

Sponsor update - Feeney’s

The L5’s sponsor, Feeney’s, have opened a new venue, The Dog, in Aldgate. Not only will this be the location for the L1/M1 quiz fundraiser in a few weeks time, but it is also showing Six Nations matches for all the rugby fans who fancy great vibes and great drinks. 

If you prefer to stick to what you know, the OG Feeney’s is open Monday-Saturday and they are hosting a week of St Patrick’s Day events 13th-20th March - a great option for a team social.

International Women’s Day nominations:

In celebration of International Women’s Day in March we want to give recognition to some of the brilliant women of Wapping who inspire us everyday. Whether on the field or off, this is an opportunity to shine a spotlight on women across the club.

We’re asking you to send in your nominations of those who embody the spirit of Wapping. Send in the name of the nomination and the reason why you are nominating them by Sunday 11th February to wappinghcpress@gmail.com.

Back 2 Hockey

A reminder that Back 2 Hockey is taking place every Tuesday 8:30-10:00pm at John Orwell. Sessions are free and led by the Ladies 1s. It’s a great session for those who haven’t played hockey before or are looking to get back into the sport. It is also a great way of getting people to know the club, so do reach out to any friends, family or colleagues who may be interested in coming along.
