The Northwood 1st hockey team started their season with a solid victory against Kearsney. The team were in fantastic form in the first half and took a dominant 3 – 0 lead after goals from Dale van der Merwe, Matthew de Sousa and Steve McManus. Kearsney managed to pull one back before the half time break.
The second half never reached the standard of the first half with both teams missing some good chances. Both the Northwood and Kearsney goal keepers were in outstanding form on the day. Kearsney managed to score a second goal on the final whistle but the Northwood victory was already sealed by this stage. Congratulations to our boys for an outstanding start to the season!
