Hockey squad friendly with Loretto

U12 East Lothian Development Girls squad triumphant.

Earlier this month thirteen of the girls in the U12 East Lothian Hockey Development squad played Loretto in a friendly match, first of the season. Loretto kindly hosted us at their home pitch in Musselburgh. It was a great turnout – thank you to parents, grandparents, family and friends who came along to support the kids.   The East Lothian girls came from primary schools across the cluster - Yester, Dunbar, Ormiston, Haddington, St Martins and Gullane. The girls played a brilliant match and scored some terrific goals, which came thick and fast and took the breath away of the Loretto players. Loretto had a great wee goalie who saved a dozen or so goals through very quick reaction – hats off to her, the East Lothian girls were not holding back! A fabulous triumphant match for the U12 EL squad.

It was a great afternoon that ended with all the kids going back to Loretto for pasta and meatballs!  The comradery and sportsmanship of both teams was great to see. The supporters were also treated to much needed hot drinks.  Loretto was extremely sporting and gracious and made the East Lothian squads feel very welcome.  Thank you Loretto.

Next up for our East Lothian Development squads are some games for our U10s and U12s against Belhaven on Saturday 27th January and then a boys U12 game against Loretto on Wednesday 31st January.
