A NEW six-a-side mixed and ladies' hockey league has been launched in Gloucestershire with five venues across the county.

The league is open to men and women of all abilities who are 16 years and older.

The league started with a ‘back to hockey’ taster session on April 27 and will run through into late autumn.

Players can either play in a mixed or ladies' only league and can register as an individual or a team.

All teams must register online by April 29 via http://www.hockey-fever.co.uk/registration.

Individual players can register and will be allocated to a team if they cannot find one before the league starts.
