Hockey News – October 2018
The U15Bs put on a great display of determination and team play against Finborough recently. In particular, in the second part of the first half once our team had settled to its task, Emily made some great attacking runs up the pitch and Erin kept things tidy at the back. We discussed decision making at half time and tracking back which made a huge difference in the second half, exemplified by Phoebe and Katie B who worked a fantastic attack only for the ball to come back off the post. We made some great chances in the second half and really put the pressure on Finborough, their goalie (who was a year older!) making a series of fine saves. Talia and Lottie played some perfect passes up the pitch with Ella and Becky working hard in their attacking roles. Sophie and Bea had solid games in defence, clearing the ball wide, and Lakisha and Elsa played well in goal. Katie B-M and Olivia also made telling contributions and Maisy put some real pressure on the right of the pitch. It was an exciting game to watch and we were unlucky to lose 0-2. Well done girls, and many thanks to all the parents for supporting.
