Busselton junior hockey season underway

It was an exciting start for Cavaliers Hockey Club as the games started with a derby of both the club’s year 7-8 girls and year 7-8 boys teams playing each other.

Although it was a rather chilly start for the girls the weather soon turned up the heat and proved to be quite a warm day for all the players.

Yet this did not reflect a true snapshot of the game.

The white girls team did well defending and keeping the orange players at bay with a 2-0 half time score - but the experience of the orange team in the end shone through.

Goal scores were Aillie McMahon, Eryn McMahon, Oliva Lee and Lux William (2)
