Hockey 1st XI vs St Teresa’s Effingham
The Senior team faced St Teresa’s in a closely fought match that was far tighter than the 4–1 score line suggests. The girls played with real determination and put together some excellent passages of play throughout.
With the low sun proving challenging in the first half, Alexia battled bravely in goal despite the difficult visibility, making several important saves to keep the team in contention.
A huge positive from the game was the outstanding contribution of our two Year 9 players, Poppy and Lexi, who stepped up for their first ever senior fixture and performed with confidence and maturity well beyond their years.
Both Sophia B. and Sophia N. delivered superb displays, earning well-deserved Players of the Match recognition for their hard work, composure, and consistency on the pitch.
A tough result, but plenty of promise and progress shown across the whole squad. Well done, girls!
