3s
The 1s have kept up their streak with BUCS wins, so far winning every single BUCS game of 2017! Securing a solid second place in the tables just 4 points behind Birmingham 1s, this team have 100% bounced back this new year. Continuing with fitness session and hard work during training they have really proven that Loughborough do not give up! With our current captain Beth Bingham in her final year at Loughborough, a new captain will be announced for the 2017/18 seasons!
The 2s have a real chance of winning the BUCS league leaving it in the hands of the 3s to draw or beat Nottingham 2s on 8th March. With the teams constantly chopping and changing and captain Beth Walker-Smith recently joining the performance squad, Jenny Mathieson has stepped in brilliantly as the 2s new captain and leading figure.
The 3s have been very unfortunate with games being cancelled and rearranged over the last couple months. They absolutely need to grab a win or a draw against Nottingham 2s to stay in this BUCS league and avoid relegation. Although saying this, they have achieved a huge goal difference in Saturdays league scoring 18 goals in two matches is an outstanding performance!

The 4s have been absolutely smashing it all season. No matter what the rest of the scores are, the 4s have easily won the BUCs league. A special mention to captain Ellie Mann who undoubtedly helped them along the way gaining Top goal scorer every month so far!
The 5s have really worked hard across the season, being in a Saturday league with two higher teams in Loughborough and playing 3s and 2s in BUCS they have played outstanding hockey across the season. With a considerable amount of freshers who have never played with each other, the 5s have set the bar for the freshers next year. Top goal scorer: Zoe Hainsworth

A game for the 4s against Oxford Brookes ended up with a lot of worries faces and a hurt player. After a Loughborough 4s player had run in to have a shot on goal, with an attempt to clear it a Brookes girl slaps it out in the air to hit Hannah clean on the head. She got her gash glued and it back and training again!
