Report

The U13 boys travelled to Stamford to fulfil their fixture expecting it to be one of their harder games of the term.  After working towards improving our defence over the previous training sessions, this paid off for the Stamford team only scored once in the first 16 minutes of the 20 minute game.  However, two quick breaks in the 17th minute meant that it was only 3-0 at half time.  Toby and Louis were playing well in defence and were well supported by Freddie and Matthew.  George, Charlie and Henry were keen to break forward but were soon closed down and denied space.  Matthew was moving well in goal and was keen to close the ball down.

The second half was won 4-0 by Stamford, however for the last 10 minutes our hockey, teamwork and passing all improved and during this spell we only conceded one goal.  Man of the Match goes to Toby for his resolute defending.
