The Spike or Victoria College Review October 1930

Women's Hockey Notes

Women's Hockey Notes.

At the beginning of the season the University Senior A team was easily defeated by Swifts, with a score 8—0; at the end of the season, Hutt A, the champions, won a difficult victory over it by one goal.

The bi-weekly practices on Kelburn Park, in conjunction with some of the members of the men's team were mainly responsible for this improvement, which enabled the Senior team to reach the semi-finals in the seven-a-side tournament.

The career of the Junior A team was marred by the erratic attendance of some of its members, which rendered combination impossible.

This year a Women's Hockey Tournament between the four Universities was inaugurated at Wellington concurrently with the Men's Annual Hockey Tournament, May 31st-June 3rd.

The Otago team carried off the trophy—a handsome silver vessel, by some called culander—which will be the award of victory until some sympathetic body donates a more dignified prize (a hockey stick with silver shields for the names of the victors would be very acceptable); Victoria were runners-up, and Canterbury had to be consoled with the tin of minties.

A N.Z. University team was selected to play Wellington, by whom they were defeated.

Misses Campbell and Butler won their N.Z. University "blues."

The women's hockey team wishes to thank Messrs. MacDuff. Bishop and Plank, of the men's team, for their help in organising the tournament.
