Princethorpe Pupils Help Rugby And East Warwickshire Hockey To National Success
10 Sep
Lower Sixth Erin Darcy, Year 11 Evie Phillips and Year 10 Tilly Houghton together with recent leavers Gracie Gerrard and Lucy Gribben (not pictured) were part of the Rugby and East Warwickshire Hockey Club Girls U18 Team that was crowned Tier 3 National U18 Champions last weekend.
Playing at the Nottingham Hockey Centre the Rugby and East Warwickshire team beat Bury St. Edmonds U18 Girls claiming victory with a resounding 11-1 win. In a slick, tight game they dominated the match that was played behind closed doors following government social distancing guidelines.
It was a great weekend for Rugby and East Warwickshire Hockey Club, with the U18 Boys also being crowned Tier 3 National Champions too. They beat Slough Hockey Club earlier in the day, and the team included Will Cooper-Harris who has just completed his A-levels here at Princethorpe and is working at the College as a Teaching Assistant this year.
Huge congratulations to all - we were delighted to hear of your success!
