Hockey
Girls
The girls had a successful year on the hockey pitch. The team benefited from a very keen and committed influx of Lower Sixth girls that combined remarkably well with the existing Upper Sixth team members. Although not the most individually skillful group of players, we have managed to adopt a simple and effective strategy, which has seen some superb teamwork and some excellent results. Highlights were wins against Edgbaston High School (3-2) and King Edward's High School 'A' XI (2 - 0).
Half way through the season a disappointing run of three games in which we played our best hockey ended with three defeats, as we were unable to convert our many chances into goals. Louise Prottey must be congratulated on the way in which she has captained her side. She has led by example in every respect and generated a first class team spirit. Elana Byrne has been top scorer for the second year running, with 14 goals. Jemma Tuckey and Kathryn Richards deserve a mention for their 8 and 6 goals respectively.
