Senior Girls Field Hockey

Over the Thanksgiving weekend, the Senior Girls Field Hockey team played in the Bridgeman Cup in Victoria. This is one of the largest tournaments of the season featuring many of the best 'AA' and 'AAA' teams in the Province. It was the first tournament for the Shawnigan girls and a great experience for them, playing 5 games in 3 days. This young and inexperienced team found the going tough but never stopped working hard to thwart off the offensive power of many of these teams. The girls will now have a good idea of the skill level required to play at the senior level. This year's team has 6 grade 10 girls and only 2 grade 12's in the starting lineup. The girls should be encouraged by their play at the tournament, particularly their win against 'AAA" team Gleneagle from Port Coquitlam.
