Outram School Hockey-Week 2

Turf
There was an improved performance from the turf team this week although they still went down 0-6 to a skilled Straith Taieri team in cold conditions. This has been a steep learning curve for these players, competing against teams with more experienced players. But the team work is starting to come and with more work on the positions we should start to see better things. Everyone has been making a huge effort, and the player of the day was Sam, who volunteered to put on the goalie gear, and did an awesome job for his first game there. A big thank you to all the parents and supporters who braved the conditions to cheer on the team.

Mosgiel
The Saturday morning team was unlucky to go down to Elmgrove 0-1 in what was a very even battle. We came close a number of times but their defence held on well. Everyone worked hard and the player of the day was Tyler M for his big effort and great support play throughout the game.
