Women's Hockey — Confidence Needed
Women's Hockey
Confidence Needed
The Victoria collage women's hockey team is suffering from a grave inferiority complex, which is spoiling their play. There is no reason for them to go to Dunedin next month convinced that they will be defeated.
There are three things that some of the less experienced players could bear in mind with profit. They are:
1. | Keep your position. |
2. | Hockey requires more concentration than a game of chess. Concentrate on the ball from the first bully to the last whistle, no matter what part of the field the play is in. |
3. | Never hang back. Even if there is not a chance of your getting the ball, your opponent will have something to worry about if you try to get it. |
