What a day. What a game. What a team. ๐๐ค๐
Our Menโs 1st XI are @englandhockey TIER 2 TROPHY NATIONAL CHAMPIONS.
We came out flying, taking the lead in the first quarter through a rocket of a short corner from Will Hearne ๐ and carried that 1โ0 edge into half time. Jersey fought back hard, equalising in the third quarter, and from there it was a proper battleโฆ 1โ1 at full time, nothing to separate the sides.
So it went to shuffles.
Big moments. Big nerves. Big players.
And the boys deliveredโฆ 3โ2 in the shuffles. Skipper @aidanfriskney pulling off some huge saves & @s_am.jones scoring the winning shuffle. Ice cold. Absolute bottle. Champions. ๐
We couldnโt have asked for a better game or better opponents. Massive respect to Jersey Hockey Club who pushed us all the way and showed exactly what this level is about – quality, intensity, and proper spirit.
Today belongs to this group and rounds off an incredible season that sees the team return to national league having won the @yne.hockey premier division!
Every sprint. Every tackle. Every moment of belief this season has led to this.
National championsโฆ not to be sniffed at.
So, so proud of you boys. Go and enjoy it. ๐๐ค
