Thursday evening saw a number of the Whitchurch Academy attending the Shropshire county presentation evening.
It turned out to be a great night for Whitchurch U13’s as they picked up the U13’s Central Venue League Playoff trophy.
Individual honours went to Aaron Swain and Hebe Dixon who were awarded Players’ Player and Jake Wood who was awarded Coaches Player of the Season.
Well done to all!
The Summer Badgers League for U15s has arrived, and we have entered a Boys team (Whitchurch A) and a Girls team (Whitchurch B), following the success of the girls U15s during the season and their appetite for more junior hockey games. The format for Badgers is that sides can play up to two senior players in order to give structure and guidance on the pitch.
Players from Whitchurch Hockey Academy travelled to Lilleshall with U10 boys, U12s boys and girls teams.
A creditable third place was achieved by the U10s and then the came U12 boys who secured the runners up position against strong opposition to progress to Regionals at Nottingham next month!
The U12 girls played their matches, the rain set in during their second match but they battled on and emerged as winners having held Telford to a draw, just!
So both U12 teams progress to Regionals finals next month
Congratulation to Aaron Swain and Jacob Wood who have been selected for Shropshire Under 13 boys and Ben Kimberley who has been selected for the Under 14 team.
If anyone is aware of any others please let us know.
