Hockey Success!
Wednesday 19th November 2008
Yesterday at the North Northumberland area Hockey Championships, Longridge Towers Junior Department won both trophies. Playing were Glendale Middle School, Tweedmouth Middle School and Berwick Middle School.
Year 6 (J6) beat four teams resoundingly and drew against Berwick Middle School (who came second), to win the competition by a clear margin.
Year 5 (J5) won three matches and drew 1-1 against Tweedmouth Middle (who came second) to win the trophy for their age group.
This was a challenging tournament and the standard of play from all schools was extremely high. Mr Shelagh Phillips Head of Longridge's Junior Department was delighted with the result: "The girls put their victory down to team work, determination and the excellent support from their coaches, Miss Beattie, Mrs Smith and Mrs Young".
