The Spike or Victoria University College Review 1933

Women's Hockey Club

Women's Hockey Club

The past season has been quite a successful one for the Women's Hockey Club. Two teams—Senior A and Junior—were entered in the Wellington Ladies' Hockey Association Competition. In the Senior team the standard of play, both combination and stickwork, was considerably improved on that of previous seasons. As a result this team has held a consistently good position in their grade. The junior team were unlucky in not always being able To muster a full team, often having to suffer the loss of their best players in the interests of the Senior team. However, they played many hard-fought games. Many of the players in this grade have a natural talent for the stick game which would go far if developed by a capable coach.

This year the Annual Inter-University Hockey Tournament was held at Christchurch. Our representative team defeated Canterbury, but lost to Otago, who again carried off all honours. Socially the tournament was a great success, Canterbury being delightful hostesses and sparing no effort to entertain their visitors.

The Club wishes to congratulate Misses M. Gibbons, A. Harding and N. Webber on winning their N.Z. University Blues.
