Sadly one of the stalwarts of GHC  in the last century passed away in October. Peter Methley was the hard hitting, they shall not pass, full back for the first XI in the 1960s.

GB Internationals Zoe Shipperley, Ian Sloan and Harry Gibson were all there, too, ...

This week is Women's Sport Week 2016 and here at GHC we take a lookg at five junior players currently playing with our Ladies 1^st XI. The five have progressed through the Guildford U14s, U16s and 18’s, and have played with the ladies 3’s and 2’s, improving season upon season to now be playing for our 1st team. Some have also nicely progressed through the EH Single System (now called the Player Pathway) from county to regional level. Have a look at the article below and also catch them in action at home games - check the What's On tab on the GHC website...

GHC Ladies used their Wednesday evening training session to good effect this week. The Ladies 1s played a friendly match against Woking at Charterhouse.

A great evening for GHC Ladies!
