USTS (Union Sportive Terre Sainte) is an established sports club in the region, mainly known for its football activities but also providing a thriving ice hockey club as well as badminton and table tennis sections. The Terre Sainte area with its growing population of Swiss citizens and internationals was considered the perfect base for a new field hockey club.
Founded in 2003 as the Versoix section of the Geneva club UGS, led by Kamel Boulahia; with a players from from Chambésy on Geneva's right bank to Gland in the canton of Vaud, a group of people started playing hockey for leisure on half a football pitch at the Centre de Bécassiere in Versoix.
With time, the formation and progression of our two competition teams, and the increasing age of our players, it became clear that the club could only grow with a new pitch and better training facilities.
Armed with Kamel's experience, a pool of talented juniors and with the help and support of parents, ex-hockey players and the local Terre Sainte authorities, USTS Field Hockey aims to become a force to be reckoned with in the world of Swiss hockey!
