Mixed fortunes for roller hockey youngsters

Youngsters from Lynn Roller Hockey Club endured mixed fortunes at the third under-13 tournament of the season.

Held at the Bushfields Sports Centre, Lynn took on sides from ECU Blue, Letchworth, and Peterborough.

In their first game against Peterborough, Alfie Poppy and Ria Griffin helped themselves to four goals each as Lynn ran out convincing 8-4 winners.

The second game was against top-of-the-table Letchworth who recorded a 7-1 victory with some clinical finishing.

Poppy was again on target for Lynn who were indebted to goalkeeper Imogen Senter for making a string of fine saves.

In their third and final game against ECU Blue, two goals in the final two minutes condemned Lynn, who scored through Poppy (2) and Griffin to a 5-3 defeat.

Lynn's team on the day consisted of: Imogen Senter (goalkeeper), Ria Griffin (captain), Alfie Poppy, Poppy Cooper, Millie Watson, William Dickerson and Billy Davey.

Thanks goes to Sharp Laser for their generous sponsorship to buy the team new kits.
