Disciplinary Code

The Clubs‘s Disciplinary Code is essentially an extension of the Regulations for the Enforcement of Discipline (Disciplinary Code) as published by EHL, and is intended to provide a framework to ensure the maintenance of discipline, and to penalise any action or misconduct which may bring the Club into disrepute.

A full copy of the Code is available on a separate page.


Umpiring

Although the Mens 1st and Ladies 1st, 2nd and 3rd XIs currently have their umpires for League matches appointed by National, Divisional or County Associations, this still leaves the Club having to find at least seven umpires for most Saturdays, all of whom are required to be qualified to at least Level One standard.

The Club are always keen to welcome additional “volunteers” to umpire – the more we have, the fewer matches each has to officiate in a season – and is able to provide preliminary coaching to Level One standard: contact Club Captains for further information.


Club Kit

The Club is currently able to provide playing Shirts and Socks in the Club Colours, together with jackets and “hoodies” – please contact Rachel Humphreys (Ladies Club Captain) for further details.


Insurance

As a constituent member of the Horsham Cricket & Sports Club, the Club carries Public Liability Insurance only (as required by Law), which does not provide cover for such things as personal injury, loss or theft of kit and equipment and damage to personal property.

All players and umpires are strongly advised to arrange their own insurance cover.


Awards

“Team Awards” are Player of the Season, voted by the players of each Team, and a Captain‘s Award, given by each captain of the Ladies Teams.

About the Club

The origin of the Club goes back to 1967, when Horsham Rugby Club, who played their matches on what is now the “John Dew Ground” (the secondary cricket wicket/outfield), informed the Cricket Club that they were moving to new premises.

At that time, there were several hockey players on the Cricket Club‘s committee, and they were given the task of setting up a Hockey Club. Dr John Dew, the then Chairman of the Cricket Club and now President of the Horsham Cricket & Sports Club, was an enthusiastic supporter of the venture, and he agreed to become our first President and Chairman.
