All members over 18 need to transfer to the new club on the GMS system. U18s do not need to worry about this, the club will sort that for you. It's relatively straight forward but this is how to do it:

1. Log in to your GMS account.
2. Click on 'My Clubs'.
3. Click the link below your current club that says 'Request To Join New Club''.
4. Select Bournville and Kings Heath HC in the drop down list and type "Club merger" in the text box.
5. Where it says 'Will you be leaving any of your current clubs' tick either Bournville or Kings Heath, if you're linked to any other clubs through GMS leave that unticked.
6. Once you see the confirmation screen you can leave the site and the admins will take it from there.

To officially celebrate the birth of our new club on the 1st September, we will be hosting a social on Saturday August 31st from 7:00pm - food drinks and dancing is on the menu

If that's not enough to entice you, new playing shirts may be available to pick up at the clubhouse!

We are awaiting delivery from SpeedOne Sports, but are hoping to be able to hand out shirts during the social on the 31st August. Ahead of the social, please make a payment to the club bank account.

• BOURNVILLE HOCKEY CLUB
• Sort Code: 30-97-78
• Account Number: 34251868

For the payment reference please use your name and shirt number which can be found in your Teamo profile. If you bought both shirts, you will need to transfer £60 and for a single shirt £30.

We will confirm ahead of the social, if the shirts will be available for collection but as soon as they've arrived with the club we will look to get them distributed.

Club socks will also be shortly available for purchase via the club store.
