IAPS CHAMPIONS
The team with coaches Georgia Linnell and Ed Marland
In the quarter-finals and semi-finals they
faced two of the strongest hockey schools
in the country; Foremarke and Dean
Close, who like Framlingham had been
playing some exceptional hockey. Despite
going one down to Foremarke, the girls
showed great resolve to come back and
win 2-1. The semi-final was another great
challenge in the shape of Dean Close from
Gloucestershire, but again in a fantastic
match the girls came out 2-0 winners.
This meant the national final was with
Sherborne School, who had played
some wonderful hockey all day. In an
incredibly exciting and emotional final the
Framlingham girls emerged 4-1 winners.
Coach Ed Marland said“I am incredibly proud of how the
girls played and it is testimony to
both their incredible efforts and to the
exceptional hockey programme that
Jamie Kingstone runs at Framlingham
College.”
