Hockey Hospitality: Explore the iconic Lee Valley Hockey Centre with England stars including Sam Quek
The England hockey team’s Olympic Gold-winning campaign of 2016 turned a fringe sport into headline news – and made stars of the charismatic young squad. Gala’s acclaimed hockey hospitality can guarantee you the best seats in the house – but for your most valued clients with a passion for the game, we offer a little something extra. Join the sportswomen who brought home the silverware from Rio for a hockey stadium experience like no other.
A hockey stadium experience with the players who made history
Opened in 2014 as England Hockey’s new national stadium, the Lee Valley Hockey Centre is ground central for this booming British sport. With a 3,000 capacity that can extend to 15,000 for major tournaments, match days here are electrifying. But Gala goes one better with our hockey celebrity experiences, inviting you behind the scenes to explore the stadium’s inner sanctum that only players and officials usually get to see.
Developed at a cost of £30 million, the Lee Valley Hockey Centre is a state-of-the-art sporting venue whose folklore is growing every year – and who better to host you than a member of England’s 2016 Olympic Gold medal winning team? Many of our hockey hospitality guests choose to spend the day with Sam Quek, the ace defender turned NFL pundit and media personality, best-known as team captain on the BBC’s Question Of Sport.
But with countless Team GB hockey stars at our fingertips, we can create your dream day from scratch and attend to every detail. Whoever you choose, you’ll get closer than any regular meet-and-greet, with your celebrity not only leading a relaxed hockey session on the pitch but accompanying you to the luxurious stadium lounge for a witty and revealing lunchtime Q&A.
