National Championships – September 2001
Despite generally having a successful season, the National Championships at
Liscombe Park were a bit of a disappointment for Pennine. We only managed to
win the B Grade competition during the tournament which marked the culmination
of the foot and mouth affected 2001 season.
Our B Grade section
joined forces with a Celyn senior section to produce a fantastic combination
and a nail-biting final before we came away with the trophy.
However, our other teams all gave brilliant performances.
Although we had not been as successful as we had hoped to be, wonderful weather
and excellent competition produced a thoroughly enjoyable weekend both for players
and spectators. The big screen showing of the England v Germany football match
was also a perfect addition to the polocrosse Nationals in many people’s
eyes!!
