The South Central Hockey Association is the organising body for field hockey in the South of England. It feeds teams into the Men's and Women's England Hockey Leagues and takes teams from sub-regional leagues.

League Structure

The men's and women's South Central Hockey league structure consists of a Premier Division 1 that feeds into the National League, a Premier Division 2, regional divisions and then sub-regional divisions. The South Central area covers the following four counties: ^[1]

• Berkshire
• Buckinghamshire
• Hampshire
• Oxfordshire

England Hockey restructured regional hockey governing bodies in 2021. Leagues previously administered by the Southern Counties Hockey Association were split between South East Hockey and South Central Hockey. Sub-regional hockey associations were dissolved, with the new regional bodies administering all leagues below the England Hockey national leagues. The South Central Hockey men's league was previously part of the South Hockey League and women's league was previously part of the South Clubs' Women's Hockey League. ^{[2] [3]}
