This collection is designed in collaboration with eighteen by North Stafford HC members for North Stafford Hockey Club. Steeped in a rich heritage of hockey history, the pedigree of blue and white acknowledges the generations of players that have contributed to make North Stafford Hockey Club the club it is today. 

We've created a common kit design for all ages and genders; men's, women's, mixed, open and juniors which encompasses a #oneclub mantra. Part of this change is a move to both men and women having navy blue playing shorts and skorts for home and away games. We have also incorporated women's specific shorts into the collection.

* NSHC Bespoke playing socks are available to order continually throughout the season both online and from the Tea Hut at Trentham from the end of September 2025. See NSHC comms to find out when further NSHC playing kit ordering windows go live.

• The next ordering window is 22nd September 12pm until midnight on the 5th October - a playing shirt subsidy is available during this window. A STRICT LIMIT OF 1 HOME SHIRT AND 1 AWAY SHIRT PER PLAYER IS TO BE AKNOWLEDGED. Any GK shirts will be included in this allowance. Additional shirts can be ordered but we will contact the customer to settle the difference in the order.
• Please select 'Club Pick Up' at the check out and communication will be sent out when your order is ready to collect. Please read the delivery times section below.
• CHRISTMAS ORDERING WINDOW will open 20th October and close 2nd November. The full range of NSHC kit including joggers, coats and more will be available for this window.

SIZING: This differs from AKUMA garments.Please check the sizing charts carefully. We strongly advise that you try the items before placing an order as we cannot refund or exchange bespoke items due to incorrect sizing, unless they are faulty.

SHIRT NUMBERS: Please include your shirt number (and your Surname as both are included in the shirt cost) if you have already been allocated a playing number. If you do not have a number, NSHC will allocate directly with eighteen. In rare cases where number duplicates for juniors arise when moving to play senior hockey, an alternative number will be allocated.

SOCKS: These are available to order from the first batch via the NSHC Club Shop via the eighteen hockey website and will be available to purchase from the Tea Hut from October.

DELIVERY TIMES: The NSHC range is a mixture of premium bespoke, personalised items. Delivery times for playing shirts, skorts and shorts are 4-6 weeks from when the order is submitted after the window closes. Other items and garments may be 4 weeks or less. 

SHIPPING: When completing your order at the checkout, please choose 'shipping option'  and then 'shipping method' to select Club Pick Up. We will arrange pick up at NULS or Trentham pitches when the orders arrive.
