Lady Lumley's Year 8 girls' hockey players began the New Year with a hard fought 0-0 draw against Norton.

Inspired by player of the match Megan Williams, Lumley's created a number of chances as they dominated.

However, most of their efforts were narrowly off-target, allowing Norton a share of the spoils.

Hard work put in during training is starting to show dividends for Lady Lumley's year 7s, who hammered their Norton counterparts 7-1.

Player of the match Sophie Shepardson was excellent in attack as was strike partner Lauren Scott.
