On Saturday the 16th July U19 boys went to
Chengelo to play hockey. Three other schools were present on the day and these
were Trident, Simba and Chengelo. Our first game was against Trident and it
started off really well; we took the lead in the first few minutes of the game
with a goal by Daniel Weiandt. As the game progressed the team became a bit
disorganised and gave away 3 goals by the end of the second half, in the end we
lost that game 3-1.
Our second game was against Simba and the team was willing to
put all their effort into this game. In the first few minutes of the game Simba
scored the first goal to give them the lead. Later on in the first half Daniel
equalised to make the score 1-1 and then another goal by Daniel Weiandt assisted
by Cholwe Muleya gave us the victory in that game as we won it 2-1.The defensive
play in that game was really good from the back players who showed a great
amount of effort and hard work.
Our third and final game was against Chengelo School and most
of the boys were tired in that game but we were willing to play to their best.
The game started intensely as both teams were fighting to get the first goal and
at half time the score was still 0-0. Cholwe and Daniel had a few shots on
target but still didn’t manage to get the ball into the back of the goal. Later
on in the second half Chengelo school managed to score 2 goals against us but
still continued to put in countless effort and played with a very good attitude.
The game ended 2-0 but I think we played our best in that game and I would like
to thank the team for the effort they put on that day, and for everyone else who
made the trip possible, and most of all I’d like to thank God for safe travels
on the day and no serious injuries.
