The St Anne’s hockey girls are enjoying superb form this season with all teams currently unbeaten in the local league. The 1st Team travelled to Gauteng in the April holidays where they gave an outstanding performance at the St Mary’s Waverley Tournament, up against 32 top schools from around Southern Africa. St Anne’s made it through to the finals, their highest achievement at the tournament to date, where they were beaten 3-1 by forth-time reigning champions, Meisieskool Oranje . Daniella Rhodes was named one of the Strikers of the tournament and Brady Wiseman as a Defender of the tournament. They went on to participate in the Saints Festival and won all of their matches. Also in the school holidays, both the U14A and U16A Teams won their age group categories at the tournament they played in Bloemfontein. The St Anne’s Sports Department introduced a High Performance Programme this year which has been embraced by the girls and their hard work appears to be paying off on the hockey field.News supplied by St Anne's Diocesan College.
