The U11A team travelled to Stamford on Wednesday for an U10 hockey festival.  With agreement from the organisers we took along our three Year 6 girls so the U11B team had sufficient numbers for a fixture. The team thoroughly enjoyed the festival, having the opportunity to play four 9 minute matches against Brooke Priory, Stamford, Laxton and Copthill. It was clear from the outset that St Hugh’s were a well gelled team. This week they passed the ball far more and let the ball do a lot of the work!  This created more space on the pitch and there was some super linkage from our defensive half to our attacking D.  Our goals went into double figures throughout the afternoon with Penny, Beth, Phoebe and Annabel all adding to the tally. Having dominated possession in the first three games we decided to bring Aurora out field and Beth stepped up to have a go in goal. We were pleased not to concede any goals in the festival.  Aurora enjoyed having a run out and played well at the back.  A positive afternoon, well done to all players.
