A Big Week in Hockey

August 28, 2017

We just had an absolutely huge weekend of some great hockey.
Congratulations to 3rd Grade and B Grade Red for the wins.
B Grade Blue lost in a tough 2-1 defeat to Kings Langley in the wind and rain, but live to fight another week this weekend.
In a similar tale, 1st Grade lost to Panthers in a tough battle in the cold on Saturday night, but will play for a spot in the grand final this week.

2nd grade had a tough 0-0 all draw with Richmond that went to double extra time, and Richmond went through on points.
A Grade had a loss 2-0 to Rooty Hill.
Sadly, that is the end of A Grade and 2nd Grade’s season, but just a great effort.
Well done guys!
You are all winners in our Emu Hearts.

This brings us to this weekend.

This week is all party, party, party with the Juniors.

We’ve got last training of the year for juniors, and it is going to be a dress up night.
All the fun of hockey training, with all the fun of dressing up.
It’s going to be amazing

Then we have our Baby Emus battling it out in the Grand Final.
There is a presentation for everyone, even if they didn’t make the Grand Final, as well as a DJ and a meal from the canteen.
Times might change, if games go into extra time, but the planned timetable is available for download.

For Seniors, this week is finals and playing for a spot in the Grand Final.
Come down and support for some amazing hockey.

Saturday
11.30am- 3rd Grade vs Rooty Hill
2.30pm- 1st Grade vs Penrith RSL

Sunday is going to an absolute cracker of a game, when B Grade Red take on B Grade Blue.
We aren’t quite sure of the time on this one, so keep an eye out for times.

Since B Grade Blue ended up higher on the ladder, it means B Grade Red will be in the alternate strip of white shirts and white socks.

The upside is regardless of the outcome, Emu Plains will have one side in the grade final.
