A particular highlight was the U12A team’s outstanding 3-1 victory over Woodbridge School. The squad also performed brilliantly at their recent tournament, qualifying for the Regional Finals - a fantastic achievement and reward for their hard work and enthusiasm. The U13s have gone from strength to strength, producing a series of excellent performances. The U13A team recorded an emphatic 9-0 win against Glebe House and followed this up with a strong 5-2 victory over Culford School. The U13B team also impressed, battling hard to earn a 2-1 win against Wymondham College’s A team, a testament to their determination and growing confidence.

The 3rd XI have shown fantastic grit and determination throughout the season, highlighted by an excellent 4-0 win against Wymondham College’s 2nd XI. The 2nd XI have been superb, losing only one game so far, with standout moments including qualification for Regionals and a commanding 4-0 victory over Culford School. Meanwhile, the 1st XI have been working tirelessly behind the scenes, with their 3-1 win against UEA’s 1st XI reflecting their exceptional progress and dedication. With such positive momentum, the future of the Girls’ Hockey programme looks incredibly bright.
Following the success of last season, the Boys’ 1st XI hockey team has entered a rebuilding phase, welcoming eight new faces into the squad. With a fresh mix of talent and energy, the focus this term has been on developing team cohesion, refining structures, and preparing for the challenges of Tier 1 competition. The team began their campaign with a series of local fixtures against Dragons, Norwich City, Dereham, and Magpies. These early matches provided valuable opportunities for the new-look side to gel and test combinations in competitive settings. The boys showed great commitment and resilience throughout, competing hard in every fixture and demonstrating steady progress with each performance. Their opening Tier 1 encounter came against Ipswich, where the team narrowly missed out on victory in a closely contested game. Despite the result, the performance was full of positives, with the squad displaying strong defensive organisation and promising attacking intent. The following fixture saw the team take on Whitgift – the four-time reigning champions – where they once again rose to the challenge, matching their opponents for long periods and showing encouraging signs of growth. With each match, the group continues to build confidence, understanding, and belief. The foundation being laid this season will no doubt serve the team well for the remainder of the campaign and beyond.
