KELLY College first XI girls' hockey team embarked on an exciting away trip to Torquay Grammar School to compete in the final round of the Devon County schools' tournament championships.

First up for Kelly was Exeter School and the Kelly performance was solid but there was disappointment with the final score 0-0. This showed a great improvement in the squad considering Exeter's victory was 5-2 in a previous meeting. Gem Murphy was Kelly's player of the match.

Kelly's next game was against West Buckland. They did not have a brilliant first half but they raised their game and had a cracking second half. Goals game from Georgina Killingbeck and Laura Sivyer to ensure a 2-0 victory. Olivia Eadie was Kelly's player of the match. The crunch match to decide the tournament game was against Blundell's. It was tight for the first half with Kelly almost forcing the ball over the line but stopped by Blundell's defence. The second half saw Blundell's take the lead from a penalty corner to decide the game. Chloe Bassett was Kelly's p-o-m.

The final game was against Kingsbridge Community College. Kelly took the lead with a well-worked goal finished by Kate Eadie. Kingsbridge forced themselves back into the game with a breakaway goal. However, with only minutes remaining Kate Eadie added another goal from a straight strike from a short corner.

This was a great effort by Kelly squad who earned second place to Blundell's School in the five team league.
