U9 Foremarke Hall Tournament
Crescent played in the Foremarke Hall Tournament for the second year last Saturday, going in as defending champions. The standard of hockey was high, with the area’s top club sides playing in the event, alongside the schools, so Crescent knew they needed to be at their best.
In the first match, Crescent played Belper Hockey Club and moved the ball around well. Isaac scored early on and then the team held on for the win. Sutton Coldfield HC and Foremarke Hall A proved to be tougher matches but Crescent held their own and had good chances to score. Sachin made some super saves at the other end in his first match as goalkeeper.
In the end, Crescent narrowly lost out 0-1 and 1-2 respectively. Joshua’s goal in the Foremarke match was a superbly worked team goal. A draw in the last saw Crescent finish in third place overall and they received the bronze medals.
