YEAR 7 HOCKEY

Year 7 Hockey Team Debut

The day started off cloudy and rainy so it wasn't off to a good start. Once we had arrived at Malvern Hockey Centre, everyone started getting ready by warming up and getting Finlay, Orlando and Sahil ready to be goalie. So we started off the day by playing Balwyn High School and we got off to a strong start as we were defending Balwyn's attack efforts. Unfortunately, once we had let one goal slip through, Balwyn started to get a move on with their passing plays splitting open our defence. The end result was 8 - 0 with Ian making great movements down the field, Callum defending with great strength and finally Sahil making great blocks as keeper. 

We were planning to turn around our performances in the last game against Camberwell High School but again things didn't go according to plan. By the end of the first half it was 8 - 0 so we decided to just have some fun. And that’s when we started to play better Hockey. We were really attacking with Lachlan and Callum smashing the ball down the wings to on-running wingers such as Ethan, Sahil and Cooper. Unfortunately, we didn't score a goal and the end scores were 10 - 0. But with good performances from Raymond, Orlando and from many more, we ended up having a good time.
