Bournemouth

Easter 1998

After many years of going to Folkestone, a change was had this year with a visit to Bournemouth International Hockey Festival.
The reason for the change was to join up with Aylesbury and have a full ladies team, two men's teams, and two mixed teams.
The first two days were very wet, with many of the pitches being cut up, and subsequently being out of action, but luckily Aylesbury decided to spend the entire weekend in the bar, so Chalfont St. Peter managed to play some matches.
The humerous and highlights on this tour include:
Switching off the (loud) generator of the annoying sods in the field
Matt Kirby taking a penalty flick with his foot....and regretting it
Steve Salisbury trying to stay on his feet
