Hockey star awarded at the Dundee Sportsman’s Dinner

Katie Robertson awarded Young Athlete of the Year at thee Dundee Sportsman’s dinner in September with the likes of Laura Muir (athletics) and Bradley Neil (golf) both previous winners.

Katie captained the young Scotland side to Gold at the Sainsbury’s School games beating two strong English sides and Ulster in the final to be crowned champions.

‘It was a great honour to be presented with the award, but at the end of the day it is a team sport and I wouldn’t have been recognised if it wasn’t for the rest of the team and the coaches.

‘There was such a great atmosphere at the School games and we really came together as a team. Winning the gold medal was a testament to all of the hard work the team put in during the months leading up to the event which showed in the final against Ulster. After moving up to U21s this year, I’m hoping that I will continue on to playing for the Scotland senior women.’

Mother Lynne couldn’t be prouder of her daughters achievements representing Scotland; ‘It was great for all of the parents to watch the girls bring home the gold medal.’

Well done Katie for this great achievement a true hockey star in the making!
