Early history
In 1981 Roger Downer and Sid Williams, assisted later by Pete Fenton, founded the Junior section, so many of whom have gone on to distinction with the 1st team of Beeston and indeed other Clubs. Since then, firstly with Eileen Hartley and then under the direction of Martin and Judith Keeling, they have become enormously successful with many representative and National honours at U13, U14, U15, U16 and U18 level.
In 2003 the U18 boys won the National title and in 2005 and 2006 the U15 boys also won the National title. A significant award in 2004 was the England Hockey Club 1st and Sport England Club Mark Accreditation. Mention must also be made of Steve LeMottee who guided juniors into men’s hockey via the XBs from 1991 to 1998.
The juniors in 2007/08 had a successful season with both U18 and U15 boys finishing as runners-up in their respective National competitions and Beeston HC was also awarded Clubs First Reaccreditation – only the fourth club in the UK to achieve this.
