Gameweek 2 of the 23/24 season for Bristol & West Hockey Club! Our Men's 1st Team engaged in an intense battle in the West Men's Premier league, ending in a thrilling 2-2 draw against Bristol Firebrands 1.

Goals by Josh C and Ed, supported by assists from Will and Faerber, sealed the win.


The Women's 2nd Team, playing in the West Women's Berkeley Division 2, had a killer game against their arch-nemesis BAPS, securing a dominating 3-0 win. Ella (x2) and Hannah Biggs were the goal-scoring stars, with Elsie and Katie Howles providing the assists. Elsie's outstanding performance earned her the Player of the Match title, and the team shared their love with votes for Chloe, Rach, and Smurph.


In other matches, the Men's 3rd Team narrowly lost 1-0 to Westbury & United Banks 2, the Women's 3rd Team faced an unlucky 2-0 defeat against Lydney 3, and the Men's 4th Team dominated with a 9-1 win over Bristol & West 6, with Phil being the standout player and Jeremy receiving praise for volunteering as the goalkeeper.


The Men's 5th Team faced a tough battle, losing 3-1 to Clifton Robinsons 7, but Dan Lusmore found the net and Rob Ledger excelled defensively, earning Man of the Match honours for Sam Bennett. Lastly, the Women's 4th Team secured a walkover win against Bristol Firebrands 6 Dev in the West Women's Berkeley Division 3.

1s played an intense match, and it ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw against Firebrands. Chip and Max were the goal-scoring wizards, with H and Chip providing the magical assists. But, oh boy, Disco got himself into a bit of a pickle by scoring a goal after the whistle had blown and picking up a yellow card.

DoD: Disco… many reasons - but scoring a goal after the whistle had gone and then picking up a yellow for it was enough on its own

Another close game for our Women's 1st team against tough opponents in the form of Firebrands. Having conceded 4 against them in pre-season, we reduced the deficit this time around.
