Year 6 Mixed Hockey Tournament

On Wednesday 15th November two teams from Chilcote represented the school at a mixed hockey tournament that took place at Hollywood primary school.

The tournament was split into two competitions - one for the 'a' team and one for the 'b' team. Both competitions followed the quick sticks rules.

The 'b' team played in a round robin format where they played two other schools twice. In their two games against the Oaks they lost both in close encounters. One game finished 2v1 and the other 1v0. In their two games against Hollywood they won both. The first game was 3v0 and the second game was 1v0. This meant that they finished in second place in their competition!

The 'a' team were in a group with two other schools and played each other twice too. The winners of the group would qualify for the final against the winners from the other group. Against Yardley Wood Chilcote drew 2v2 and then won 1v0. Against Hollywood Chilcote drew 1v1 and won 2v1, with a last minute goal to win the game. This meant they finished top of the group and go through to the final. In the final they played against the Oaks. The game was really close with both schools having chances to score. Unfortunately for Chilcote, the Oaks managed to score one of their chances and won the final 1v0.  It really could have gone either way!

Both teams received silver medals for their finishing positions and represented the school really well. Well done to all involved!!!
