Congratulations to our U14 Hockey team who are the winners of the Plate competition at the GDST Festival of Hockey.

The girls also enjoyed the downtime and made the most of their three day visit to Newcastle having a wonderful time at the beach, bowling and visiting the cinema to watch ‘Matilda’

It was a fantastic three days of hockey which saw over 250 girls competing in a Cup, Trophy and Plate competition. It was brilliant playing against teams from 11 other GDST schools, and meeting likeminded students with a shared passion for hockey. Many thanks to Newcastle High School for hosting a great competition.

Huge thanks also to Miss Stewart and Mr Lem from our Sports department who accompanied the U14 team for the Festival.

Miss Stewart said “We are fortunate to be part of The Girls Day School Trust and to be able to make the most of coming together for events like this. The standard of hockey and skills on show were fantastic and the camaraderie between the schools was clear to see – a massive thank you to Norwich, Streatham and Clapham, Sheffield, Shrewsbury, and Nottingham for lending us a GK throughout the weekend. We are proud of our U14s who did a brilliant job of representing Royal High School Bath on and off the pitch. Their teamwork, attitude and etiquette across the weekend was fantastic to see and we hope that the girls have made some lifelong memories and everlasting friendships. We are already looking forward to next year’s U14 Trust Rally and Newcastle’s fantastic hospitality.”
