Scottish Hockey
Scottish Hockey, formerly the Scottish Hockey Union, is the national governing body for the sport of field hockey in Scotland. It is the SHU's responsibility to help provide for the development, promotion and management of hockey in Scotland. It is also the body that acts as "National Association" for Scotland at the EHF and FIH.
The origins of the Scottish Hockey Union, like many hockey organisations started with separate associations for men and women. The Scottish Women's Hockey Association (SWHA) was formed in February 1900, in Edinburgh by eight clubs. Dr. Mona Chalmers Watson, from Edinburgh Ladies, was elected the first president with Josephine Katherine Stewart of St Andrews as vice-president.
The Scottish Hockey Association (SHA) was set up on 18 November 1900, when ten clubs met in Glasgow to form the men's association. James Burns, 3rd Baron Inverclyde, was elected the first president.[citation needed] In June 1989 the SHA merged with the SWHA to form the Scottish Hockey Union.
Scottish Hockey are in charge of selecting a number of Scotland national squads. This includes the Scotland men's national field hockey team and Scotland women's national field hockey team squads, as well as Masters and Junior squads.
Scottish Hockey is in charge of organising the Scottish Hockey National Leagues, which consists of the top tier Scottish Hockey Premiership and the second tier Scottish National League.
