U14 Boys Inter Districts

The stage was set for the U14 Boys Inter District event at Glasgow National Hockey Centre yesterday.

West and East dominated their pool matches by winning both games and claiming their place in the semi-finals.

Midland and South finished runners up in their pools therefore also advanced to the semi-finals.

West overcame South by 3 goals to 0 to reach the final in the U14 event for the third year in a row. Elsewhere East won 2-0 against a strong Midland side.

The competition proved to have the same fate as the previous year with both West and East competing for the title. Once again there was nothing between the two teams and the match was decided on running penalties.

Credit must be given to both goalkeepers, West’s Logan McClure and East’s Cameron Bosi as they performed excellently in the penalty shoot-out saving all of the first 5 penalties for each side which took the teams to sudden death.

It was West who were triumphant and were able to regain their title when Ben Carol rounded the goalkeeper and finished emphatically to secure the victory.

Elsewhere Midland ran out 5-0 winners over a hard working South team which allowed them to claim 3^rd place, with South finishing 4^th.

It was the battle of the Northerners to decide on 5^th and 6^th. Both teams played tremendously but it was the Highlanders who claimed 5^th place after winning 4-0.

Congratulations to all teams for what was once again a great day of competitive hockey
