England Hockey Success

Congratulations to Lower Sixth pupil Lily Webb and Upper Sixth pupil Megan Taylor, who both played for their respective age-group teams at the England Hockey Home Nations tournament held at the Lilleshall National Sports Centre in Shropshire at the end of July.

Lily played for the England Under 16 team; whilst Megan played for the England Under 17 Whites team. Both girls played exceedingly well, winning all of their matches, to meet in the Finals, which the Under 16 team won.

The girls’ sporting prowess continued through the summer, with Megan representing the regional Wessex Leopards Under 17 team in the Futures Cup at St Albans Hockey Club in August, and Lily playing at an Under 18 trial for England over the first weekend in September at the Lilleshall Centre.
