Two local teenagers, Brooke Crew-Reid and Jack Pearce have spent half of their school holidays representing WA at the 2016 Under 15's Australian Hockey Championships in Wolllongong, NSW.
The Championships were held from April 9-17 with WA fortunate to have an array of talent and send a girls and boys, A (Gold) and B (Black) division to the tournament. Overall twelve teams from across the country competed in each league (girls/boys) with a number of thrilling encounters and games had during the nine day championship.
Home grown talent, Brooke and Jack we're both selected for the higher division teams 'WA Gold'.
Brooke was selected as vice captain of the girls WA Gold Team as this was her second time presenting WA at the U15's Championship. The girls WA Gold team played in the semi final Saturday April 16 and after a close game, unfortunately lost to Victoria Blue (4-3) finishing fourth on the ladder.
The boys WA Gold Team also made the semi final and played Victoria Blue to also (unfortunately) finish fourth overall with a final score of 4-0.
We congratulate both Brooke and Jack on such an amazing achievement and look forward to writing about more hockey successes.
