After what has been an amazing season for the Winchester U12 Girls, earlier in the year they won the Hampshire League and In2Hockey Cup.
They have now finished off the season in style winning the Repton Cup, an invitational weekend long tournament against some of the best hockey clubs in the country.
A strong performance (four wins and one loss) placed the Winchester girls top of the pool table to line up a spot in the final against Marlow HC. A hugely competitive end to end game, Marlow took an early lead but the Winchester girls showed great spirit to battle back with an equaliser soon after from Aggie H. The defence held firm with a barrage of Marlow short corners and then in the final minutes of the match Zoe J came up trumps with a winning Winchester goal, 2 - 1 and Winchester were Repton Cup champions.
Well done to the nine determined, resilient and talented players, Venne B, Zoe J, Aggie H, Ella R, Emily K, Alice W, Poppy W, Violet L and Lara J.
