Celtic Cup success for Masters at Titwood
Clydesdale Hockey Club played host to the Masters Celtic Cup this weekend, with Scotland tasting success.
The Over 60s tournament included France and Ireland for the first time, along with the original contestants, Scotland and Wales.
The Over 65s Celtic Cup was fought out between Scotland and Wales, whose friendly international planned for Sunday 27 April turned into an (indecisive) playoff for the Great Grand Masters Celtic Cup.
There were also two matches for Scottish Thistles against a Glasgow select and a Barbarians team.
The tournament was played at Clydesdale Hockey Club, Glasgow.
Scotland Over 60s took the Grand Masters Celtic Cup outright after three wins out of three while The Over 65s retained the Great Grand Masters trophy after two successive draws with Wales.
