Who We Are

Camberwell Hockey Club is a very successful family oriented and community based hockey club for all ages, gender and abilities. With over 1000 members we train (and play games) at our two home grounds – Matlock Reserve in Cantebury and Koonung Secondary College in Mont Albert North. We operate under a clear set of values summarized as follows: Supportive; Selfless; Respectful; Inclusive; and Relentless.

Amazing People

Our club’s success would not be achievable without the vast range of volunteers who give up their time and expertise to create the club we are today. Whether it’s players or parents putting their hand up to coach or manage one of our many teams, helping with umpiring, joining our committees, helping out on club clean up days, running the barbeque or baking goods on Club Days, or supporting our fundraising efforts, each volunteer contributes a vital role to ensure Camberwell Hockey Club’s continued success both on and off the field. 

 

Total Inclusion

CHC is a community club for all ages, gender and abilities and have a proud history of supporting inclusivity within our club and the wider community. We were one of four pilot clubs for HV’s Fair Go, Sport! Initiative; a project aimed to increase awareness of sexual and gender diversity in hockey whilst promoting safe and inclusive environments. We are committed to supporting Women in Sport, continually looking at ways to increase participation of girls and women in hockey, seen in the awarding of the Sue Hounslow Cup for best Junior Girls Club in Victorian in 2016, and have programs in place to help players’ transition from juniors to seniors.

Unmatched Junior Program

Our junior program sets the benchmark in the hockey community. From our Hookin2Hockey program for young beginners through to winter season teams from U8 to U18, we offer a clear, inclusive pathway for players of all abilities to grow and succeed. Every team is supported by two dedicated coaches, drawn from a strong mix of senior and junior players, ensuring high-quality coaching and strong club connection at every level. Our CHC Futures academy provides additional skill-based training for players eager to accelerate their development, while our Junior Mentorship Program pairs advanced juniors with senior players who guide and inspire them throughout the season. With a proven transition pathway into senior hockey, many of our junior athletes are already competing at senior level by U16, making our program the ideal environment for long-term player development and success.

 

Absolute, Unwavering Commitment to Success

At CHC we are continually striving towards excellence in all aspects relating to the club, Victorian Hockey and the Community – both on the field and off. We are a recognized leader in Victorian Hockey, not just for our on field performance perspective but for our innovation and active promotion of hockey in Victoria. We are continually looking for ways to improve our product offered not just for players and spectators, but for coaches, umpires and administrators as well.
