Hockey – by Brayden and Logan The team worked very well together.The first halves of all of the games were very quiet, with only one game having any goals scored in the first half.The second halves were the opposite – with a lot of action!Annie made quite a few shots at goal, scoring four altogether. Connor - played strong games and was a real team player.Zoe played well, once she had organised her footwear. Unfortunately she wasn't aware she couldn't wear boots on the turf! Jackie had to overcome nervousness, but participated once her nerves had settled down. Ethan was very enthusiastic and didn't back down when challenged.A player who wasn’t scared to hit the ball was Nathan, who can hit hard and fast!Sarah showed confidence and that she wasn’t scared to hit the ball.Annie attacked the ball strongly, hitting it as though it was a golf ball!Hayden displayed skill, scoring two goals for the team.
