Vitality Women's Hockey World Cup 2018

Situation: Lee Valley in London was announced as hosts of the Vitality Hockey Women's World Cup, taking place within the Olympic Park at Stratford. For this one-off prestigious event, Lee Valley required high quality Hockey Goals, Shelters and Equipment.

Solution: Due to our strong relationship with England Hockey which has spanned over the last 20 years, we were asked to supply Hockey Goals, Shelters and Equipment to The Vitality Hockey Women's World Cup at Lee Valley. Our assembly team worked hard to install and assemble our Hockey Goals at Lee Valley, to the correct specifications, ready for the tournament to start on the 21st July. We also supplied our Training Goals and Hockey Rebound Boards to the Fan Central at the Olympic Park – which was a hub for aspiring Hockey Players to have fun and practise their skills!
