Gateway Field Hockey Leagues are St. Louis’s premier field hockey experience, bringing high-energy skill development and recreational and competitive gameplay to athletes of all ability and experience levels in 1st–12th grade during the fall, winter, and spring seasons. Our youngest players can jump in on the fun through our Mini Sticks program, offered for JK/PK and Kindergarten athletes.

Since 2000, Gateway has proudly delivered professionally run field hockey leagues that blend top-tier instruction with exciting game play—season after season. All sessions take place on top-of-the-line turf fields at Villa Duchesne and Sportport, ensuring a first-class experience every time athletes step on the field. With multiple divisions within each age group, beginners, intermediate, and advanced players can grow their skills and confidence at a level that’s just right for them.

Each session includes about 15-20 minutes of instructional warm-up focused on skill development, followed by 40 minutes of instructional gameplay.

Want to play with friends or classmates? We’re happy to accommodate friend and school requests for League, Prep Club, and Mini Sticks athletes—so grab your crew and join the action! Flying solo? No worries—we’ll place you on a team where you’ll feel right at home.

Reminder: Seasonal Leagues are included for all Prep Club and Elite Club members, so there’s no need to register for both League and a club program. Come be part of the excitement and experience the best field hockey St. Louis has to offer!
