Invitational Tournament

Posted: 16/10/2017

On Saturday, our annual Invitational Prep School hockey tournament took place. Teams from Fairfield, Trent College, Cheltenham College Prep, Abberley and King’s Worcester all took part including our A teams from Years 5 to 8.

The U10As and U12As were both playing teams a year older and gained some valuable experience of tournament play. Of note, the U12As did magnificently well to beat Abberley’s U13As 5-1, and the U10As drew with Abberley’s U11As 0-0.

Although our U11As were tired from the previous days play at IAPS, they displayed some excellent attacking strategies and achieved some good results including a 1-1 draw against Abberley.

The U13As played with terrific confidence, no doubt from their excellent performance at the IAPS tournament earlier this week. After losing a school fixture only a few days before to Trent College, the girls played exceptionally well to beat them this time 1-0. They then played Abberley Hall and beat them 5-1. The girls went on to draw with King’s Worcester 2-2 and lastly, played our own U12A team to secure the winners medals beating them 6-0. Congratulations to them and to all of the girls who took part.
