Millie and Edie barely missed a shot as they put away 18 goals in 24 minutes. Jen and Osa are a formidable pair in the D and work seamlessly together to close down the space and make turnovers for the team. Pippa, as always steadied the ship in the centre court - well done team! Hockey The 13As played against Hazlegrove the team came to life with minutes left to go. Final score 3 - 1, after 1 - 1 in the first half. Tristan scored a great goal, and it was good to have Oliver back in CB after his absence the day before.
