A New Season Begins And A New Era !!

History was made yet again at Louth Hockey Club this weekend. The new Pavilion hosted the first Louth Men's Team game when they faced a team from Brigg H.C. The sun was shining and both young and old players arrived with nerves, smiles and loads of energy.

Capt. Will Bunney had put together a cracking squad. From the starting whistle the players looked the part, supporting, calling and running for each other. Nerves were settled and the midfield of Martin, Daryl, Will B, Alex and Will P began to link their play and feed the forwards of Timmy 118, Harry and Henry.

The target for the team was to keep possession and read the play. Understanding of each others runs and passes grew as the time ticked away. Brigg were strong in the defence and play was repeatedly put back to the midfield. Read More

Louth Hockey Club U11 Boys Become  County Champions

The first round of the National Yazoo U11 Mini Championships were held here at Louth on 8th MARCH ’09. A windy, but bright sunny day saw teams from Brigg, Lincoln, Long Sutton, Louth, Sleaford and Spalding take to the astro turf ready for some challenging play.

Welcoming a new player to their midst, Louis the Goal Keeper, Louth began as they meant to go on and sent a flurry of goals past Brigg to win 7 – 0.

As the weather deteriated so Louth’s confidence grew. A great spirit prevailed and excellent team work proved them unstoppable. They went on to beat Spalding 8 - 0, Long Sutton 5 -0, and finally Lincoln 5 - 0, scoring 24 gaols in all with none against. Thus making them Lincolnshire Champions.

 

 

 

A Great  Spirit Prevailed

This earned them a chance to go to the East championship, at the Harleston Magpies Hockey Club ground, on April 25th ’09 where they will face some very tough opposition in order to reach the National Final at Highfields, Nottingham in May’09.

Congratulations To Newly Qualified Level 1 Club Coaches

The Club would like to congratulate Amie Wright. Claire Canning, Jane Chamberlin and Richard Limmer for becoming England Hockey Level 1 Coaches and wish them every success in the future.uture

Congratulations also to Samuel Temple-Baxter who has been selected to play with England's U16 squad.

Samuel came to train at Louth when he was about 7 or 8 and has gone from strength to strength playing, originally with Louth juniors, then for a short time with Lincoln juniors. He then went into men's league hockey, playing for Horncastle and finally for Alford & District H.C. He also progressed through the County and Regional squads and finally reaching the dizzy heights of National recognition - well done Sam. We'll be following your progress!

More Congratulations!!

Chloe Thornley, Kelly Thomlinson, Michelle Scott, Lizzie Marshall and Rosie Bunney have passed their theory as Level 1 Umpires, well done.

Newsletter  January 2009

The International Hockey Federation (F.I.H.) Implement Experimental "Free Hit" Rule.

A “self-pass” from a free hit has therefore been introduced.  It enables the player taking the free hit to play the ball again after taking the free hit which will encourage free-flowing hockey. 

As with other actions on the hockey pitch, this must take place safely.  Other aspects of the free hit rules have therefore been reviewed.  To read more click here
