Jon Goodall (Heroes) – scored twice and won player of the match.
Gabby McAlister (W3s) – excellent performance in goal.
Jack Chester (U16 Boys) – one of the standout performers in a great display of team hockey, discipline and determination.
Catherine Ledesma (W1s) – superb for the W1s across a second Super 6s weekend, scoring twice to add to three goals from weekend one.
Blake Jones (U16 Boys) – one of the standout performers in a great display of team hockey, discipline and determination.
Umpires:
Mark Foakes – umpired our W5s when we were short as he couldn’t play and then umpired the girls’ under-10 tournament on Sunday.
Graham Sutton – fitted in umpiring between playing at home and helping the Heroes by benching away at Maidstone in the late game.
DoDs:
M3s: Ollie Lane – a well-executed Ollie Lane pass to the centre forward and a self-lob.
M5s: Dave Hobbes – one of his three goals was from two inches which denied a young gun a goal.
M6s: Craig Lumsden – played so well the opposition thought he was a ringer!
Harriers: Lucas Ball – normal service resumed for not name-dropping the Harriers on BBC Radio Kent.
Heroes: Ray Zerafa
MO50s: Chris Doyle – goal-hanging and a horrendous hacking.
W5s: Mark Foakes – as umpire, a poor dad joke
