Goal-keepers using their own kit may receive a further discount. Contact the Treasury team for details.

Players with limited availability should contact the Treasury team for advice.

If you are facing financial hardship the Club may be able to help fund your hockey activities. If you require this support, please speak with your Club Captain or any member of the Executive Committee.

Players should sign up to a payment plan by end September to remain eligible to play for the Club or participate in any other hockey-related activities provided by the Club.

Reasonable expenses associated with hockey activities may be claimed. Please read our Expenses Policy before submitting a claim. Claims should be made using the claim form (saved in .pdf format as teamomail does not support .docx attachments) and sent to treasurykit.ocean@teamomail.com. If applicable, don't forget to attach receipts.

The Treasury team aim to pay any expenses as quickly as possible.

We are aware of some issues e-mailing to the group email address. Any e-mails to the group should come from the e-mail address that you registered to your Teamo account. This is apparently a security precaution put in place by Teamo. There have also been instances of googlemail.com addresses not working.

If after a week you have not received confirmation or payment, please, direct message one of the Treasury committee using the Teamo chat.

All players are expected to abide by the England Hockey code of ethics and behaviour

and the OCHC code of conduct
