Update to the Club Song to be more inclusive

18 September, 2021

The club is excited to announce that our club song has had a refresh.
Our club song no longer references binary genders – a small change that makes an enormous difference to our diverse community.
We appreciate everyone for taking part in the consultation period which included information to all club members, as well as consultation with Pride Cup and Hobsons Bay City Council.
The club song is a cherished part of the Altona Hockey Club and remains integral to our proud history.
Can’t wait to hear it sung after plenty of wins in 2022!

Hey look us over
Here at A.H.C.
We’re the blue and gold
In perfect harmony
Just pass the flag A’s
Just pass the shield
And watch out all you other teams
Whenever we take the field
And beware of our backline
And our forwards too
When the goalie runs out
The other teams are through
And we’re not short of a Premiership
When finals come around
We’re Altona Hockey Club
The Mighty Seagulls
Altona Hockey Club
