Age Group: Year 11

Competition: Cleveland County Hockey League

2009-2010 Season

The U16 Hockey Team have won the U16 Cleveland School Girls County Hockey League 2009-10 Season!

The girls have been working extremely hard since September and on Friday they were announced as winners of the league having scored 34 goals in their last six games. Their most impressive victories included a 12-0 win over Laurence Jackson school (semi finalists in the league last season) and 12-0 over Macmillan (runners up last season).

The league covers the best hockey playing schools in Middlesbrough, Stockton, Hartlepool and Redcar and Cleveland and includes teams from Teesside High, Red House, Acklam Grange, Rye Hills (Finalists last season), Egglescliffe school (winners of the league last season) and Laurence Jackson.

This is the highest hockey playing accolade that any of The King's Academy hockey teams have achieved to date. Not only have staff from the opposing schools commented on the high levels of skill displayed by the girls, their positive attitude and humility in games that they have won easily has also been noted. They truly are a credit to themselves, their families and The Academy. Well done!
