West Buckland School, in North Devon, has enjoyed one of its most successful hockey seasons in recent years across the boys’ age groups from U11 to U15.

The U11 and U13 boys were crowned Devon Hockey Champions, reaching the West National Qualifiers, while the U13s had the added accolade of winning all their fixtures throughout the 2018 season.

The U14 boys were also crowned Devon Hockey Champions and were undefeated throughout the Devon tournament, beating Exeter in the final 3-0. The U14s also reached the West National Qualifiers, remaining undefeated at the regionals with 3 draws and 1 win.

The U15s also remained undefeated for the whole 2018 season!

Hockey coach, Duncan Rudge, is delighted with their dominance in the region. “The boys have worked really well and really gelled within their teams. Success breeds success and we can confidently say that West Buckland boys’ hockey is in a very healthy place for next year.”
