HOCKEY MATCHES, 1970
There has been an innovation this year in that hockey was introduced in the Autumn term as an option. This has undoubtedly led to an improvement in the general standard of hockey in the Spring term. The option for non-rugby team members functioned twice a week and the players gained valuable experience on the harder grounds.
The lack of match practice in the sadly curtailed 1969 season showed itself in the inexperience of the teams at the start of the season. However, as the weather allowed games to continue more regularly than for some years the teams and the club in general enjoyed a steady improvement. Under J. C. Goodrick's enthusiastic leadership the 1st XI worked very hard and played some good 'hockey. The 2nd XI, under M. G. V. Stephenson, had some fine wins culminating in a fine 8-1 win over Bootham. I congratulate and thank both captains for their efforts this season. Mr. P. G. Feek, who helped coach the School teams, brought enthusiasm and experience from which we all benefited. My thanks go to him for his help.
Next year our season has been extended to the whole term and we look forward eagerly to 1971. 1st XI from: •C. D. McAinsh, • P. A. Lockwood, • M. G. B. Hepworth, •M. W. Bainbridge, • J. C. Goodrick, • J. W. Gillgrass, •I. Robinson, •P. Holmes, M. J. Jones, •P. L. Hall, • R. F. Atkinson, S. R. H. Astley, K. Washington. 2nd XI results:
York University won 2:1.
Scarborough College draw 1:1.
Worksop College lost 0:2.
Bootham School won 8:1.
