Brave Cup is a week of youth hockey, featuring the best young players across the country in local squads: The Northern Devils, Western Thunder, Eastern Lightning and new Brave Barbarians. The matches are played at Aspiring and Emerging levels. Our players are part of Western Thunder and Brave Barbarians!

This year there is the introduction of the Brave Barbarians, who are formed of players from each Brave Centre who are out to ‘upset the Brave Cup apple cart’ on finals day.

You can purchase tickets to the final on Sunday 11th August at the Glasgow National Hockey Centre via Scottish Hockey here.

“It is fantastic to see a number of our junior athletes being selected to represent both Western Thunder and the Brave Barbarians in the Brave Cup. This is a testament to their hard work and effort that each of them have put in during the season, and carried this work ethic into the off-season as well. They have all developed so much in our youth training programmes and within our senior teams too, and great to see so many selected. Best of luck to each and every one of them over the course of the week!” – Gareth Ikin, Director of Hockey

Good luck to everyone taking part, we’ll be there cheering you on!
