YALE College women’s hockey team finished third of seven teams in the Welsh Regional Hockey Tournament in Wrexham.

Competition was intense as the team fought through exciting matches beating Swansea College 2-0 and St David’s College 1-0 and drawing 1-1 with Coleg Powys in the first round, only to draw again 0-0 with Coleg Powys and 1-1 with Coleg Meirion Dwyfor and just being beaten 1-0 by the final winners Gorseinon Coleg.

“It is an impressive achievement,” said Pat Sharples, programme co-ordinator for BTEC Diploma introductory in Sports and Leisure.
