Wednesday 23/02/11

8.00pm to 9.30pm Under 16 Girls v Western Wildcats (U16 National League)

In a mild night the girls took to the pitch prepared for battle having noted the Wildcats performance on Sunday winning 6 - 0 over our 2s, with virtually the same squad.

Within minutes the 'Dale girls had opened the scoring through fast moving of the ball.

At half time with a 3 goals to nil lead it looked like the possibility of a reversal of Sunday's score. It was not to be as the Wildcats girls showed tenacity to stay in the game. Pulling a goal back making it 4 - 1 it seemed, with tiring 'Dale legs there could be an upset. The coach made some tactical switches to restore the pressure and just before the end another goal was tucked away to make it seem like a comfortable win at 5 - 1.

Well done to both teams for making it a fantastic game of hockey to watch. I am sure there is plenty of talent in both teams to look out for in the future.

Santa

Under 18 Scottish Indoor cups

3 girls playing for Hutchesons's team on Saturday 15th and the club's boys team playing on Sunday 16th January produced an excellent outcome by winning their respective cups.

There was some exciting and often emotional moments in both events but the 'Dale members showed their true grit to become champions.

Well done to you guys and galls...

After School Coaching

With the able assistance of Jo MacPherson, Santa is leading the 10 week block of coaching sessions at Holyrood School.

With 13 girls attending we are able to get a fun session and the girls seem to be enjoying themselves.

I am sure we will be seeing the girls at a club training session soon.
