Our Committee
London Royals is run entirely by its members. Everyone on this page is a volunteer who plays for the club and gives up their own time to keep it going — entering teams into leagues, booking pitches, ordering kit, sorting umpires, organising socials and putting on Pride Cup.
The committee works in two parts. The Executive Committee meets monthly and looks after the direction and day-to-day decisions of the club. The General Committee meets twice a year and covers the roles that keep each team, event and season running.

Executive committee
The Exec is responsible for how the club is run and where it's heading. Between them they look after our finances, membership, communications, funding and the men's, women's and mixed sections of the club. They meet monthly and are elected by members at the AGM each year.

General committee
The General Committee is where most of the week-to-week club life happens — the people organising your Saturday fixture, your kit order, your tour and your socials. They meet twice a year as a full committee and work alongside the Exec throughout the season.
Team Captains
Every Royals team has a captain. They handle the weekly running of the side: selection, match arrangements, umpires, teas and making sure everyone knows where they need to be and when. Captains are supported by the Men's, Women's and Mixed Club Captains who sit on the Exec.
If you're new to the club and wondering which team would suit you, your section's Club Captain is the best first message.

Club roles
These are the roles that keep everything running around the hockey: pitches and fixtures, kit, umpiring and coaching, socials, tour, our website, and our flagship Pride Cup. They work alongside the Exec Committee and are every bit as central to how the club works.

Welfare Officers
Our Welfare Officers are here for any member with a concern about their safety, wellbeing or treatment at the club — whether that's something that happened on the pitch, at a social, or anywhere in between. Conversations are confidential, and you can get in touch directly at any time.
