The U16 hockey team has qualified for the National Finals, which will be held at the Olympic Legacy site in Stratford on 22 and 23 April 2015.
In the Midland Hockey Finals the team kept a clean sheet through the group matches against Bishop Vesey (3-0), Uppingham (4-0) and Oakham (2-0), and then went on to beat last year’s national champions, Trent College, in the semi-final (1-0). The team’s only loss came against Repton College in the final (5-1).
Overall, the trip showed our teamwork as a group flourish, and each of us began to notice our individual strengths.
Huge congratulations to Barnaby Lenon CBE, who has received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2025 Tes Schools Awards!
What was astonishing was the pros did the whole thing for five minutes in each, doing 5X what we did. All in all, the trip was interesting and insightful, and on behalf of everyone that went, I want to thank Mr Macdonald, Mr Caviezel-Cox and Mr Lloyd for organising it.
One of the boys said it reminded him of the Indiana Jones films.
