Boys Win Hockey Plate
The 1st XI Boys’ Hockey team headed to Edinburgh for the Scottish Schools Senior Boys’ Plate Final against Robert Gordon’s College last Friday.
The team had prepared well and the boys were committed to their training sessions ahead of the final clash against their Aberdeen opponents and after an action-packed 70 mins they were victorious. They were in good spirits and mentally prepared for the task ahead. After a nervy first few minutes, it wasn’t long before their stick skills allowed the boys to take control of the game with S6’s Jamie outpacing the defence to make it 1-0. Just before half-time Hutchie were awarded a penalty stroke and Johnny (S6) stepped up to calmly slot it into the top corner.
It wasn’t all Hutchie and thankfully goalkeeper Archie (S5) was alert and made a few good saves. S6’s Leo grabbed a goal midway through the second half before Jamie got another to put the game beyond doubt.
Final score Hutchie 4-0 Robert Gordon’s College.
A tremendous effort and a well-deserved win.
