Drizzle didn't spoil the enthusiasm of players at the finals of this season's 8 a side competition.
The Milne cup was awarded to Southwell Raptors after a hard-fought game against Hukanui Dribblers which could have gone either way. Bruce Milne complimented both teams on the quality of their hockey.

Kate Mahon was on hand to make presentations to the Waikato Year 5/6 Representative players. She spoke about her years as a Waikato Rep, and the friendships she has made through hockey. She encouraged the rep players to train hard and to enjoy the game, but also to value the friendships they will make along the way.

Black Stick, Kate Mahon signs off autographs at Mini closing day.

Kate and her Blackstick team-mates, Clarissa Eshuis and Di Weavers will be playing in Hamilton on Sunday Sept 24th when the Midlands women take on North Harbour in the National Hockey League.
