Martinborough Junior Hockey – 2019 Results and Prizegiving
Our 1st XI team came so close to victory in their final of the A-grade competition against rivals, MIS Falcons. Martinborough scored an early goal in the first half of the game and held their defence until MIS scored a late goal in the final 3 minutes to draw 1-1 at full time. Martinborough was then defeated 3-1 in a penalty shoot out to finish runners up for the second year in a row. We will try again next year! Congratulations to all of the players, Neens Bruce (coach) and Carolyn Jephson (manager) – a champion team.
