On an unseasonably warm day, considering what the weather gods have produced over the past couple of weeks our Cramond men headed to East Lothian to face Belhaven. With injuries effecting Belhaven in the build up to the match it was decided we would loan them Adam for the first half.
Adam clearly with a point to prove to Coach Stephen proceeded to act as a thorn in the Cargilfield side for the first half. His endless energy and superb attitude kept the score to 3-0 at the break, with some clinical finishing and crisp transitions from the Cramond men. Rather like Nketiah’s brief loan spell at Leeds, his parent club had sense to bring Adam back sending Conrad to play for the hosts.
The second half started with some fabulous three touch hockey from the boys. The endless desire and work rate from Paddy, James and Hayden complimented the composed passing from Ewan, Oliver and Cammy. This led to a free-flowing half of hockey in which both teams really improved and grew into the game, giving the hosts a lovely moment to score at the death after a wonderful burst from Conrad. A wonderful advert for Hockey at the school, the boy’s attitude could not be faulted and they should be very proud of their efforts. I said to them at the start “be amazing” and they were.
A 7-1 win!
