On a glorious sunny Saturday afternoon Everett took to the astro turf
in the Senior House Hockey competition. The first game was tense and we took a
while to settle, an early goal from Skipwith shocked us into playing a much
better game, but in such short matches despite battling hard we lost the first
game. Next up were Orchard, we started well using the wings to good effect,
alongside good passing and finishing saw us take the lead from a great shot by
Greg. Rory and Greg were proving a constant threat up front, whilst solid
defence from Oran and Chris kept the opposition out. Great play in midfield and
on the wings by Anthony, Myles and Emma again led to another goal this time
scored by Anthony. We closed out the match with another excellent goal this
time by Rory, 3-0. Harry Frost in goal made some fantastic saves and went on to
keep a clean sheet in this and the final games. Our confidence was high and the
final two games were exciting end to end battles, we won against Burr with
another goal from Greg and a great final match against Welsh was finished off
in style by Chris who broke out from defence to speed down the right wing and
smash home the winning goal. I was very proud of the whole team, Everett
triumphed as deserved winners overall!
