Boys’ Hockey

This will go down as the season that never was, as frustratingly, it was lost to the lockdown. However, it was wonderful to welcome the boys back in for the last two and a half weeks of term, and I was delighted that we got some hockey played. Despite having such limited pitch time in the previous few months, I was impressed with the standard of play that the boys were producing across the board, from the U14s through to the seniors.

In spite of the disappointment of losing an Easter term of hockey, it was wonderful to be able to get some competitive hockey played with senior boys matches with both Wells Cathedral School and Bruton HC taking place. This was an opportunity for the boys to test themselves against an opposition and there were some fantastic individual and team performances alike.

Whilst I would like to take this opportunity to thank the U6th leavers, and particularly 1st XI captain Sam Rabbets, Oliver Sykes, Joe Gartell and Adam Barrett-James for their contribution to King's Bruton hockey in their five years at the School. I am also very excited at what the future holds as we, hopefully, are able to have a full boys’ hockey season next year.
