CANTERBURY FACE FURTHER WOE

Canterbury, who were due to visit Havant on 17 February, played their Slazenger EHL Premier Division match against the Hampshire club this afternoon to avoid a clash with the European Indoor Club Championships, where Canterbury are the English representatives. Canterbury are not having their best season and are currently propping up the Division. However, nothing in the form book could prepare pundits for the 10-2 defeat inflicted on them. Hat-tricks from Thornton Mcdade and Ahmed Ez Mohamed and goals by Calum Giles, Andrew Pett, Tim Davenport, and Tom Butt, gave the home side a 10-2 win. Canterbury’s reply was by Matt Harper and Simon Hare. Canterbury are now four points adrift at the foot of the table.

Today was a rest day in Kuala Lumpur in the Champions Trophy but Great Britain are back in action tomorrow when they play the host nation, Malaysia. There will be an interruption to postings on this blog whilst we make our way to Malaysia.
