Boys Hockey - Saturday 7th March 2009
Under 9 Triangular Festival versus Foremarke Hall and Derby GS
On a fine sunny Saturday morning fifteen Form 1 and Transition boys made a trip to play in a triangular festival at Foremarke Hall. For many it was their first taste of competitive hockey and certainly for most the first time they had played on Astroturf. Two seven a side teams were fielded and both performed with much credit showing both skill and determination. The 'B' team lost both of their games narrowly 1-0 and 2-1 , but the 'A' team led by the experienced and inspirational Harvey W achieved some spectacular results beating Derby GS 4-0 and then holding a very strong Foremarke Hall team 1-1 fighting back from a 1-0 deficit. If it had been a competitive Tournament rather than a Festival the 'A'team would have triumphed on goal difference. These performances showed what can be achieved with perseverance and determination and with 6 Under 8's taking part the future of S.Anselm's hockey looks bright.
