Contents

The men's section of the hockey club was formed in 1914 and was part of the Hightown Club which ran several sports including cricket, rugby, tennis and football. The women's section was formed later and became one of the leading clubs in England winning three league championships and four national cup wins.

The men's team disbanded following the 1980s merger with the Northern Hockey Club and in 2004 the women's team merged with Bowdon Hockey Club which ended the hockey association with the village of Hightown. The women's section of Bowdon is known as Bowdon Hightown and remains a successful team.
