National Club Cup Success for Oxted HC’s U14 Caterham Boys

Last weekend saw a terrific spectacle of hockey taking place on the pitch at Caterham School as Oxted HC (with many familiar Caterham faces) hosted Surbiton HC in the U14 England Hockey National Club Cup round of 16. Surbiton HC is one of the biggest junior clubs in the country, but this did not deter the Oxted boys, who put in a terrific showing to come back from 3-1 down with 15 minutes to go and went on to draw 3-3 just before full time and take the game to penalty strokes. The tension was almost unbearable, but the Oxted boys held their nerve to run out deserving winners in the shootout and advance to the quarter finals. Huge congratulations go to all eight Caterham School players representing Oxted in the game and best of luck for the next round.
