Welcome to CVL 2008

13:10:2008

The 3 CountiesCVL is up and running for a third year. We welcome newcomers Telford with teams in under 11 and 13 boys. Craven Arms and Wigmore have not managed to get sides together this year. The first session is always the most difficult with new players unfamiliar with the rules and managers finding it hard work to get their youngsters signed up. However we had a good day, all games were played and there were some exciting new players. Well done everyone.

We have also branched out this year with a five club central venue tournament for under 16 girls Badger teams, including two over age players, at least one of whom should be aged under 18 on December 31st.
Hereford dominated the first session, as other clubs struggled to get their sides together, but we hope for more competitive games on Sunday 26th October.

Top Twenty

17:09:2007

The CVL is proving ever more popular and now has 20 teams competing across the three divisions with 10 in the U11s and 5 each in the Boys & Girls U13s. The U11s teams will have played almost 50 games each by the completion of the league, the U13s will have played over 30 matches each!

Encouraging Start

17:09:2007

The first session of the new season involved 12 sides with many players taking part in competitive hockey for the first time. At the same time several sides included young players with considerable experience and it was a pleasure to see the high level of skill which has been developed by hard work and good coaching.

It was also encouraging to see the improvement in the standard of play over the duration of the tournament. We look forward to continuing progress on the 21st October when we could have 20 teams taking part!
