MILTON KEYNES IV "RONIN" 2-5 TRING II

Tring 2s travelled to Milton Keynes on Saturday, a destination that has not seen much success for the Blue and Whites in recent seasons.

Selection issues meant that they needed players to double up from the 1st XI, so skipper Luke Sherring-Lucas and the Brown twins Alex and John bolstered the playing strength.

What was a keenly contested game ended up with Tring running out 5-2 winners. The result of an excellent all-round team effort.

Tring took an early lead following good approach play from James Collins, the finish came from Alex Brown on the far post.

MK got on even terms from their first, dubiously awarded, PC, and the team's turned round at half time at 1-1.

A raised work rate from Tring saw them effectively closing down most of the home side's efforts, and they opened up a two-goal lead midway through the half; in the build up to goal number two Sherring-Lucas threw a long aerial down the middle of the pitch- and in the process dislocated his right shoulder, so he didn't see the excellent finish from Alex Brown.

Semi-recovered he returned to the fray five minutes later.

James Collins added goal number three to give Tring some breathing space, only for the home side to get one back with a scuffed reverse stick shot.

But it wasn't too long before Tring added their fourth goal, with Alex Brown completing his hat trick, and he made it four for him, and five for the team, with five minutes remaining, to wrap up a great afternoon for the travelling Tringovites.

TRING: BROWN R, SWIFT, GRAINGER, POWELL, DARVILL, BROWN J, BARNES, COLLINS, CLARINGBOLD, SHERRING-LUCAS, BROWN A.

Everyone at Tring Hockey Club sends their best wishes to Gilbert Grace on his 90th birthday. Have a great day celebrating with the family.

The 2nd XI will just have to cope without you for a day!

The photos show Gilbert in action on 12th September when the club gathered to celebrate his long career, and in the company of three of the oldest players still in action (L-R) Brian Woolcott of Southgate HC, G himself, and Bill Greenwood...who celebrated his 90th earlier this year.

On Saturday 12th September Tring Mayor, Cllr Carol Nutkins, had the pleasure of celebrating 70 years of Gilbert Grace playing hockey with Tring Hockey Club by watching them play against a formidable England LX Over-80s team. Gilbert has represented England playing hockey around the world and despite being 90 this month he has every intention of continuing to play. Such an inspiring day and reinforces the benefits of staying active in our older years if we can.
Thank you to Tring Hockey Club for inviting Carol to be part of this great day.

Tring Hockey Club welcomes new adult players of any age, and juniors are welcome at training from Year 7 and can play Saturday hockey from age 13.

Training is on Wednesday evenings at Tring School from 7.30 to 8.30, with matches played September to March

Currently the club is only running Men's teams, but the 2nd XI plays in an "Open" division in the South Central league, meaning that Ladies can play too- a couple of our opponents have mixed selection.

They are very keen to restart a Ladies section, so all interest is welcome.

There are opportunities for local businesses to sponsor the club as it looks to grow for the future.

Joining Tring Hockey Club is a great way to meet others, get back into hockey or learn the game.

Please contact "[email protected]" to find out more.

TRING II 0-4 WOOTTON WANDERERS II

Tring 2s fell to another home defeat this week, going down 4-0 to visitors Wootton.

Tring were undone during a fifteen-minute period in the first half when Wootton's more powerful presence in the D saw them establish a three goal lead.

Tring responded superbly in the second half, fighting for every ball and passing well to create several decent chances- the best of which was a rasping shot from James Collins which was well saved by the Wootton 'keeper.

Sadly, despite their best efforts the home side couldn't get on the scoresheet, and a fourth goal for Wootton possibly created a false impression of the true balance of play.

The team goes to Milton Keynes next Saturday for another challenging encounter.

It's still early in the season, and the Club is keen to welcome new players at any time.

Training takes place at Tring Sports Centre, Mortimer Hill, on Wednesdays from 7.30.

TRING: BROWN R, GRACE, WALTERS, MATTHEWS, GRAINGER, POWELL, DARVILL, COLLINS, BARNES, CLARINGBOLD, BROWN N, HOLMAN,
