U14 girls hockey

On Saturday the 15^th July, 2017 Chengelo hosted the ISAZ hockey tournament for the under 14 girls. There were 4 schools which were Chengelo, Amano, Trident and Simba.

 

So our first game was against Simba, most of the players were afraid because it was their first experience so the first half was easy for Simba and in the first half we allowed an easy goal, but as the game went on we slowly began to gain confidence and we did not allow any other goal in the first half. In the second half we pushed and put effort, we also shot more on target but could not score a goal and at the end they managed to score an easy goal due to tiredness and so we lost that game 2-0.

Our second game was against Trident, and surprisingly the team was also scared of them and this gave Trident a very big advantage and they were very confident because of that and so we allowed two easy goals in the first half of the game and we again began to gain confidence slowly as the game went by, we did not allow them to score another goal in the first half of game. In the second half we actually began to enjoy the game and we managed to equalize the game 2-2 but just before the whistle they scored and so we lost that game 3-2.

Amano vs Chengelo

Our last and final game was against Chengelo and we were not so scared of them so we had a lot of motivation but we were tired too so in a blink of an eye they scored 5 goals in the first half and we scored nothing. The team began to get tired and so we slacked a little in the last half and so they scored another 3 goals and we lost that game 8-0 overall we came out 4^th out of all the four schools and I don’t really blame the team for our loss neither our coach Mr. Grove and lastly I would like to thank the team, Mr. Grove and Chengelo for hosting and for providing good facilities to play and enjoy hockey.
