Nine Year 7 pupils travelled to Sevenoaks School on 6th October to compete in the Under 12 County Hockey tournament. They started the tournament with a close 1-0 win to our rivals Tonbridge Grammar School, and following on from this we played Sevenoaks School. We had the possession for the majority of the game but a lapse in concentration led to us losing 1-0. The team discussed what they felt they could improve and the importance of communication before the next match. The team went on to beat Cranbrook School and St Edmund's School in convincing wins. At this point there were multiple teams in the running to be crowned winners. Our final game was against Kent College Canterbury; they were a very strong team and it was clear they regularly played together. TWGGS worked extremely hard and scored, they stayed strong in defence communicating clearly and effectively. The game ended 1-0 to TWGGS, with one game left in the competition. It was a nervous wait but we had done it winning on goal difference. TWGGS are the 2026/2027 U12 County Hockey Champions and have made it through to the Regional Round. Well done! Miss Withers
