U14 Girls beat Surbiton 6-0 to go onto the Home Counties Final

A home game on a foggy morning versus Surbiton saw the Under 14 Girls in the semi-finals for the Home Counties League.  The girls were slightly intimidated by the Surbiton team and for the first five minutes were slow to respond to Surbiton’s attack; after the initial nerves had settled Hawks played some fantastic hockey; good accurate passing, excellent communication and faultless performances in defence and attack.

In the first half there were four goals for Hawks, all scored in quick succession.

The defence deserves a special mention as none of our usual defence girls were available so big thanks those who both did an amazing job in stepping up.  The first half was a fantastic example of speedy, impressive hockey.

Surbiton rallied after a half time pep talk and came out fighting, the first ten minutes of the second half were dominated by Surbiton and a few shots on goal kept Amelia on her toes.  Hawks were quick to defend with a few goals cleared on the line and although 4-0 down Surbiton kept going.  Two more goals were scored in the second half by Hawks, one where the keeper took out Maisie and the advantage was played and Lili scored .

A wonderful 6-0 win over Surbiton and no goals conceded sees the girls go to the Home Counties final in Reading on Sunday the 28^th of April, well done girls.

Dame of the game was chosen by Surbiton and went to Hari.

Thanks to Lisa & Robbie as always.
