Well done to Bart and his Midlands teammates, who came home from the boys’ interdistricts with a gold medal. Bart, sharing the goalkeeping duties, only let one goal past him in the whole tournament, which is hugely impressive. Izzy and the girls had a tougher time of it, coming away in fourth place.
The first Dads and lads session of the summer kicked off over the weekend, with a few more or less wary dads and other assorted beginners pitting themselves against some lads, most of whom were “lads”, which is to say they were either daughters, or adults who just needed an extra runaround. Great fun, particularly … Read more
The traditional end of season bash took place at the clubhouse last Friday, with much swankiness and glamour on display, and that was just from the Gentlemen’s Second Team. Dougie ended his term of office as president with a moving speech about his bladder issues, as well as covering all of the season’s major events … Read more
Congratulations to everyone who did the hockey leaders course at KAS a couple of weekends ago, in many cases dragging themselves away from their revision schedules in order to be there. We are now looking in pretty good shape for coaching staff for the kobras.
We’re thrilled to announce that Soho Wealth have agreed to sponsor the men’s and Kobras section of the club for another three years. Many thanks to Steven McColl for his continuing support (both on and off the pitch!)

So there was young William, expecting a season of gentle paced goalkeeping in Div 4, but instead getting pushed on to play in Div 1 with … Read more
It was freezing cold for the girls Dev Squad game against the ladies seconds last night. That was bad enough, but the ladies had put out a very strong team too. So all in all, it was a pretty tough evening for the girls, who came out on the wrong end of 4-1. Still, a … Read more
Great works were done at KAS this morning, with a small but hardy group of volunteers turning to learn the ropes of pitch maintenance. We ran the drag mat over the pitch and the leaf vacuum round the edges, treated the moss, swept debris from round the outside of the boards, inspected the nets and … Read more
image/svg+xmlKHAOS It was top entertainment at KAS on Monday night, with the girls development squad (or Kinross Khaos, as they are to be known) taking on our social team, the Korinthians. It was to be a story of youth versus experience. The girls obviously brought a lot of youth to the game, and it’s fair … Read more
Various members of the KHC coaching staff are looking slightly smug tonight, with the news that the player of the year nominations for the Scotland U16 boys and U16 girls both include former Kobras. “Taught ‘em everything they know”, declare the aforementioned coaches (slightly implausibly)… Congratulations to Amy Salmon and Alex Wilson.
