Very Rough Guide to

Around the World in Eighty Trojans.

ROUGH GUIDE

The Festival

 Trojans hosts a small Easter mixed hockey festival based entirely on our site just outside Southampton. Each year we have a different theme, this enables an exciting range of team names, fancy dress, and names and numbers on the back of the shirts.

Around the World in Eighty Trojans ( 2009) followed swiftly on from Battlestar Trojans (2008) and Disneyland Trojans (2007)

If you have thoughts for themes for 2010, do let us know.

Philleas decided to spend longer than planned in France, but still thought a trip to Sweden was probably worthile...

The Festival

We only have space for up to 24 teams, as we want to keep as much of the hockey as possible on the two on-site Astroturfs we use, although a small amount of grass hockey should be expected, as grass is the only true surface for an Easter festival!

Any bigger than 24 teams and it starts to get a bit impersonal. The Trojans clubhouse, which is alongside the main astroturf has 3 bars, excellent catering, really good showers, and lots of nooks, crannies, and squash courts for the full range of festival experiences.
