The Honeybees are an independent local ladies hockey team, currently playing in Sussex Division 1. They are fun, sexy, sociable and predominantly gay! All ages are welcome, in fact the team ranges in age from around 25 to 50 – and although they often play teams half their age, they find that much of the time experience wins out over youth.
The Honeybees also take the social side of sport seriously, with their legendary team ‘do’s’ and social events! If you happened to catch Honeybees The Musical in Brighton, Eastbourne or London – that was about the team, and was written, directed and acted by a few of their talented players.
They are always looking for more experienced players and those looking to get back into hockey as they sometimes struggle to get 11 players out on a Saturday for their games.
Their home pitch is at Stanley Deason sports centre and they currently train on a Wednesday night between 6.30-7.30pm at Lancing Prep School in Hove.
Go along and try out hockey whatever your level with the Honeybees!
