Back to Hockey for Alison


Alison Mitchell

Sports broadcaster and journalist Alison Mitchell tells us her journey of picking up a stick and getting back to hockey.

I honestly can't remember exactly when I last played hockey prior to going to the Back to Hockey session at Chiswick HC, but my stick definitely hadn't been touched for at least 10 years. I had to retrieve my stick bag from my parent's house, and the stick, which, being about 15 years old is wooden of course, was still fine to use, as were shin pads (fairly new when I last played..) and I still had a myriad of socks from various school, county, uni, club teams. I threw out the old gum shield(!) and treated myself to a new pair of astros. So I'm committed now!
