BUCS Big Event see's 6 out of 8 victories for UOBHC!

After a day full of hockey 4 UOHBC teams march into the next round of knock-outs as well as both 4th teams winning their respective league matches.

Last years runners-up, the Ladies 1st team, stormed through to the semi-final after a shakey start to dominate Brunel 7-1. They look to do one better this year and win the gold, but first they face a more than capable Bristol team at UWE next week. The Mens 1st team were knocked out of the competition in the quarter final game against Oxford after throwing away a 3-1 lead at half time to lose the game 5-3.

Both 2nd teams had emphatic wins over 1st teams. The Ladies 2s kept out Leeds and were able to net two goals that see them through to the quarter finals where they face Edinburgh 1s at home. The Mens 2s battled hard to defeat Hallam, who despite have some big names were beaten by a better team. They face Warwick 1s in the quarters at home and hope to continue their undefeated streak in BUCS this year.

The Ladies 3rd team had a tough game against a quality outfit in Warwick 1s. The Ladies battled hard but were gracious in defeat to a better side on the day. The Mens 3rd team put on a magnificent display of hockey in their game against Plymouth 1s. Their 5-0 victory is a perfect display of the strength and depth of the club. They travel down to Exeter next week to play their 2nd team.

The 4th teams had league games this week. The Ladies 4s humiliated Warwick 2s by sticking 8 goals past their opposition without conceding. The Mens 4s fought hard and ended with a well deserved 2-1 victory over rivals Loughborough 4s.

This was an excellent display of the quality in UOBHC. Thanks are extended to all those who supported and we hope you can come to support those teams at home next week. Well done to all involved!
