Boys’ First XI
The Boys’ First XI had a rematch of their grading final again this week against a strong Albany Senior High School team. In absolutely horrible weather conditions the boys fought hard after 2 quick goals by Albany put them on the back foot. There was some outstanding hockey played by both teams, with Albany coming out the victors 5-2. After the game our team was commended by the opposing management on their fair play and overall sportsmanship in helping opponents up off the ground. It was the first loss of the season for this team but a well played match.

Girls’ First XI
On the 14th of June Wentworth Hockey Girls’ First XI won their game 2-0 against Birkenhead College! It was a tough but enjoyable game and luckily the rain held off. The defence were extremely strong and solid, as Goalie, Anja, didn’t even have to touch the ball! We all worked very well together as a team and that was a key component to winning the game. The team had already played Birkenhead a few weeks earlier and tied 3-3 so everyone was very pleased to grab a win. There was very clean and strong passing and our PC’s (which we had practised a lot in training) worked very well. Overall it was a very pleasing game and we all look forward to hopefully getting another win next week!!
