Kingswood Maintain Strong Form In The Start Of The Hockey Season

It was another excellent week for Kingswood's boys' hockey teams with only two matches lost out of the 16 that were played. The Senior teams all had very comfortable wins against Bryanston with the 1st XI winning 6-0, with three pupils all scored hat-tricks for their respective teams.

The U13A's could easily have been team of the week as they managed two hard-fought draws against very good opponents from Beechen Cliff and Dean Close, as Rory in goal was in fantastic form. The U12A's did manage two wins against the same schools, with Joe and Ted both scoring four apiece in the victory against Beechen Cliff.

However, team of the week goes to the U14A's. They had a comfortable 3-0 lead against Beechen Cliff before a freak hailstorm at half-time ended the proceedings early. However, there was only going to be one winner in that game.

They then backed this up with a 5-1 win away to Bryanston on Saturday. In what was a keenly contested game, Kingswood's finishing was the difference, with Rob, who has been in excellent form at the start of the season, scoring a hat-trick.

Bryanston pushed hard in the last 15 minutes but Kingswood defended resolutely to see out the win.
