U14s Hockey Tournament

Hannah McGown11 Nov 2019 - 18:58

Chard U14s travelled to Shepton Mallet yesterday on a bright sunny morning for the next Tournament. We entered two Boys teams and one Girls.

The Boys Tournament was evenly contested with all matches closely fought.

The 1st Boys side won one and lost two. Passing well and creating opportunities but were denied many times by excellent saves. Finley Downes was outstanding in midfield and Josias Drew scored three goals.

The 2nd Boys side won one, drew one and lost one. In the first draw Josh Truscott made many great saves and Joe Parry strong tackles. Confidence grew in the next two games with both results 2 - 1, one won and one lost, with goals coming from Will James with strong runs from midfield and Francis Caswell.

The Girls started with a closely fought 0 - 1 defeat against Cheddar Valley but are always slow starters. After a good team talk, the Girls upped their game and battled and tackled strongly against a strong Taunton Civil Service side and gained a well earned draw. Lastly Taunton Vale were the opposition and again the girls worked hard but lost 1 - 2 with Alice Gibbins making many saves and good defence from Thea Hawkins and Ev Churchill. Chard goal came from Hannah Dare.
