Okehampton's West of England Players
Posted by Jane Jones on 19 May 2019
Two Okehampton Ladies Hockey Club members who have recently been selected to represent the West of England in the National Hockey Championships.
Hannah Gibbons travelled to Basingstoke playing for the triumphant over 35's team who came away with the National Trophy. Hannah joined the Club in 2017 having previously played for various West Country clubs. The Club has welcomed Hannah's experience and skill and the way she has blended into the Club inspiring the younger players.
Nicky Pedrick was selected for the West of England Over 40's team and journeyed north to Cannock for her National Competition where the team came third overall. Nicky returned to hockey about six years ago through the Back to Hockey sessions. She has progressed through the Club and is now vice captain of the first team.
2019 is the Club's Centenary year and they are proud to have two of their members representing them at this standard.
