HOCKEY TASMANIA Online

Congratulations to Western Australia - the 2008 U21 Women's Champions.

Close matches leading into the last day.  Congratulations to QLD & WA on making the Final tomorrow.

Sunny still conditions – perfect for playing hockey today. Some juggling of ladder positions and some excellent hockey from the ladder leader WA and host State Tasmania. 

The ladder is spreading out a little with Queensland hanging onto their lead, Victoria jumping from bottom to 6th and WA looking impressive with 4 field goals today.

A brisk day but teams appear to be acclimatised with some excellent performances.  Congratulations to NSW, WA, ACT and ladder leaders QLD

The coldest snap in years and the pitch freezes over – delaying the start of game one by over an hour!!  However, a perfect sunny, still winters day followed and the large contingent of spectators were treated to some excellent hockey – it just gets better every day.  Congratulations to winners today, South Australia - who have jumped into 2^nd spot, Queensland - still on top, Western Australia and the Northern Territory who have pushed NSW out of 4th.

More snow on the mountain to both delight and freeze the visitors.  Fortunately the new Clubrooms have magnificent viewing from the warmth of indoors. The teams continue to surprise us with a mixed bag of results today. Congratulations to winners today - Queensland, Victoria and South Australia.

Cold conditions didn’t deter players from warmer climates from playing great hockey with NT and QLD winners while the other two games being hard fought draws.

A cold blustery start to the day and some settling nerves saw patchy play in most games today but more importantly, also signs that the tournament will provide some great hockey over the next 11 days.  Congratulations to today’s victors Tasmania, WA & NSW.
