Congratulations to Old Stopfordian Nicky Kellett nee Hill (OS 2003) and the England Over 35 women's team on beating Ireland 2-1 in the Masters Hockey World Cup this summer.
The England Over 35s played 5 group games in the tournament, winning all, before beat Ireland 2-1 in the final. The win makes the team double World champions after they won last year's tournament too.
Old Stopfordian Nicky Kellett nee Hill (OS 2003) tells us:
"It was an incredible experience to represent England at the O35s World Cup and a dream come true to finish as World Cup winners."
International Masters hockey is run by World Masters Hockey, which was formed in 2019 to replace the International Masters Hockey Association (IMHA) and World Grand Masters Association (WGMA).
The most recent competition that some of the Master's teams competed in was the World Cup in Nottingham. The Over 35 and Over 40 men's and women's teams competed in this year's competition.
We're excited to see what Nicky and the team achieve next.
