Men's 4ths v : Awaiting Result

It was a lovely sunny day again. A very young looking Rutland side turned up, except for one defender who was somewhat larger. For the last game of the season, the 4ths boasted fielding three players who have only been playing hockey for the last few weeks.

Rutland were skilful and quick, but they were counteracted by Stuart and James H in the middle of the field. It was a tight first half and CSHC marginally shaded it on chances, but Rutland had more than enough skills to worry CSHC's defence.

The second half saw CSHC starting to put some nice passes together. There was some lovely hockey leading to a number of chances that went either narrowly wide or were saved by the Rutland keeper. About twenty minutes into the second half, a free hit taken outside the D by Stuart was turned in by James Hodge. For the remainder of the half, Rutland started to push their defence further forward and CSHC played on the counter attack by leaving their forwards deep. In the end CSHC held out to a satisfying last game of the season win.
