12.02.2010 - 1st Boys' Hockey Team through to Midland Final

After a very disjointed start to the Boys' Hockey season due to the success of our Rugby team and the weather, Worksop has made it through to the final eight in the Midlands. This was achieved with good wins over Uppingham and Northampton School for Boys and a 1-1 draw against an inform Bromsgrove team who have found their stride early this year. We hope that the team will continue to improve as the season wears on and wish them all the best in the next round.
