U14 Boys

After their Easter tour in Rotterdam the U14 boys headed to Southgate for the Mercian League finals and came up against some stiff opposition.  They managed to beat Sevenoaks 3-2 in the semi-final but then lost out to Winchester who beat them 3-0 in the final match.  The boys are now looking forward to the national finals on 11th May where they will have an opportunity to turn the tables.

U10s & U12s

The Regional In2Hockey finals were held at the weekend in Harleston and saw the U10 boys crowned as champions and the U12s runners up.  The U12’s will now progress to the national finals.

Both the U10 and U12 girls played some good hockey at times but it wasn’t enough to reach the final stages on this occasion.

Mini Festival 6th May

Just a reminder the mini festival is on 6th May and your support would be welcome.
