U10A-C Hockey v HSA

The ND U10 hockey teams took to the pitch with great enthusiasm and determination in their recent fixture against HSA. Across three exciting matches, the ND girls showcased excellent teamwork, impressive ball-carrying, and developing skills that made for a thrilling afternoon of hockey.

Out of the three matches played, ND secured a well-earned victory in one, with the other two matches providing valuable learning experiences. The girls demonstrated fantastic resilience and a growing understanding of positioning and passing throughout the games.

There were standout moments of individual skill, with several players confidently carrying the ball up the pitch and creating attacking opportunities. The defensive efforts were equally commendable, with players showing bravery and commitment in protecting their goal.

Overall, it was a positive outing for the ND U10s, who continue to grow in confidence and ability with each match.

Well done to all the players for their effort and sportsmanship!

U9 Hockey v HSA

Notre Dame’s Year 4 hockey teams put on a fantastic display in their recent double-header against HSA, with both teams securing well-deserved victories.

The Notre Dame girls showed exceptional teamwork and resilience throughout their match. Their defensive skills were outstanding, with players consistently intercepting passes and blocking shots. Their carrying skills were equally impressive, allowing them to move the ball confidently up the pitch and create scoring opportunities. The play of the day came from Sophie W, who made a heroic goal-line save just as the final whistle blew, securing the win and capping off a brilliant team performance.

Both teams should be incredibly proud of their efforts and teamwork. Well done, Notre Dame!
