Girls celebrate title win

Twelve schools competed and the girls showed great character and determination throughout.

In the group stage they beat Woldingham 'A' 2-1, Notre Dame 3-0, Thomas Clapham 2-0 and Kent College 2-0 but lost 2-1 to Danes Hill.

However, the girls went through as winners of their section and came up against a strong Mayfield side in the semi-finals.

Here they played some excellent hockey and battled hard to win 1-0 on penalty corners.

In the final, the Burgess Hill team rose to the challenge with the game ending in a 0-0 draw, but the girls had the momentum in extra time and earned a short corner to win 1-0.
