History

In 2019, the men's first team won the Hockey League Conference East and subsequent promotion play off tournament to earn promotion to the 2019-20 Premier Division. This is the first time in the club's history that they played in the elite (tier one) division of the Men's England Hockey League.[2]

The men's first team secured their first ever Premier Division title (with two games to spare) when winning the 2021–22 Premier Division. The success continued a remarkable rise in English hockey because the team had only been promoted into the league at the start of 2019.[3] The teams then went on to secure a league and cup double after winning the 2022 England Hockey Men's Championship Cup.[4]

In 2023, Old Georgians successfully defended their Premier League title after beating Holcombe 5–1 in the play off final.[5] They then completed their second successive double after winning the 2023 Men's Cup.[6] In 2024, Old Georgians secured a third successive league championship defeating Surbiton 3-1 in the play off final.[7]
