BEATEN

Medway Lower Deck Hockey Team

BY H.K.S.R.A.

The Medway Lower Deck second string started with ten men and awonkforward fine against 'the Becond eleven of the 1.K.S.R.A... yesterday afternoon, and were eventually defeated by three clear Konis when the teams met in a hockey match,

From the initial bully off the Gunners carried the, play Into the sailors' circle, but Khan sont wide. For the first few minutes the sailors could not get going, but à good clearance by the goziktsper nont the Medway forwards away, Williams passing to the left: but the good work was lost through the wingar infringing.

The Battery outside right then obtained possession, and, nut- witting five opponents, shot from three yards range to beat the goal- keeper, who made a vallant but ünsuccessful effort to save.

WEAK HALVES.

The goal was thoroughly de- Herved as the sailors had been

hard pressed and their halves wara continually found out of position, this weakness heing especially noticeable on the left.

After the act-back, the Medway pulled themselves together, and up to the interval better play was Hoon. The Medway goalkeeper was in exceptionally good form, and as this was the first time he had played outside ship hockey, his work was of the highest

entibre.

The Battery halves appeared to have no difficulty in holding the Medway attack, who were only mediocre. Yet the sailors attack had their chances, but threw them away.

The second half was a tale of mlased chances, with the soldiers tiring very badly towards the end. Three times in succession the naval forwards got away, Morris having a atinger turned round for a corner, and almost immediately afterwards Heath, with an open goal, fell over the ball,

The Battery were unquestion ably the faster team, but spoilt movements by running Into offaldo positions. After an effort by the Medway, the Battery broke away twice in quick succession to score. The Battery were very good winners, their half backs shining throughout, while the outstand- ing players for the Medway were Morris, in goal, and Coughtry and Ford.
