Hockey

It was semi final time this week for our hockey girls in the Otago Secondary Schools Competition.

On Monday night we had 3 teams in the Division 2 semifinals!!! Our Colts team (top of the table) had a great game against Columba, winning 2 - 0. In the other semi final our Junior A's played our 3rd X1 and won 3 - 2. Congratulations to all teams for making the Division 2 finals. Next Monday the Colts will be playing our Junior A's, how awesome is that?!

On Tuesday night in the Division 1 Semifinals, our 1st X1 played Otago Girls 1st X1 - taking the win 5 - 0. Our 2nd X1 took on Columba in a tough semi final. Unfortunately they had a loss, but what a fantastic game that their goalie Jess Wilden had! All the best to our 1st X1 for their final on Tuesday night against Columba.

What a fantastic season from our hockey girls, we wish them all the best for their finals!
