Templeton School wins through to Newtown Finals

Templeton School has won the Pembrokeshire zone of a primary schools hockey tournament as their team of talented players beat Brynconnin in the finals of the Hockey Activate competition at Fishguard Astroturf earlier this month. The youngsters now go through to the Welsh finals in Newtown in July.
“Well done to Templeton, who have now reached the finals for the fifth consecutive year,” said Angela Miles, Sport Pembrokeshire’s hockey development officer.
“The standard of hockey played in the finals was very high and a credit to the players and their coaches.”
Sixteen teams from 13 schools entered the first round of the competition which was organised by Sport Pembrokeshire – the sports development arm of Pembrokeshire County Council – and the Welsh Hockey Union.
Split into two pools, Templeton and Brynconnin qualified from south Pembrokeshire and Ger y Llan and Goodwick qualified from the north. The four teams then played each other in a round robin competition before Templeton proved worthy winners and march on to Newtown.
