Cullybackey College 0
Ballymena Academy 0
The Year 10 Hockey team played their first fixture of the Ballymena League against rivals Ballymena Academy on Monday 13th November. This was a closely contested match against the Academy girls, with Cullybackey dominating most of the game. Both teams were very determined and the game started off at a fast pace on the astro-turf pitch. The Cullybackey girls were constantly attacking and making good passes. Chardonnay Caulfield came close to scoring on a number of occasions.
The second half of the game continued with good skill and fitness from the girls. Ballymena Academy broke through the Cullybackey defensc and had a number of shots at keeper Abbie White, who saved numerous goals.
A super game played by both sides. Particular mention must go to Cullybackey’s Player of the Match Nicole Millar, who worked tirelessly in midfield.
Well done girls!
