West Yorkshire dominate U12s hockey tournament

West Yorkshire took all the honours at an Under 12s boys hockey tournament last Sunday 22nd May at Park Lane, Halifax.

Two teams of seven, made up of talented youngsters from local hockey clubs in Bradford, Bingley, Wakefield, Keighley and Ben Rhydding, took on the best of North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Lancashire and Humberside. After six games the West Yorkshire first team, captained by Matthew Ramshaw of Airedale Hockey Club, emerged easy winners, while their second team, captained by William Gibson of Wakefield Hockey Club and including Alex Blake (also of Airedale Hockey Club), just edged out Lancashire and Humberside to come in as runners-up

Whether you're a girl or a boy or a little bit confused, the Airedale Mixed Team is for you! Not only are we of mixed sex, we're also of mixed age, mixed dress senses and mixed hair styles. The team plays friendly matches now and again, usually on a Sunday, and enters the odd tournament here or there for a giggle. Under the inspirational leadership of Andy Lowey, we play an open, expressive style of hockey without boundaries or formal formations. OK, so we're a bit all over the place, but it's fun and we do win the odd game now and again...

The exciting news this year is that Harriet Shires has been tempted to stay in the West Yorkshire area with the promise of the Mixed Team Vice-Captaincy. The addition of Harriet's sarcasm to that already displayed by Jimmy "The Professor" Ashley  is expected to lift the team to new heights. Just do what she says or she may turn nasty.
