Western Wildcats Hockey Club

The Ladies West District finished a week or two ago and the 1st teams finished with the playoffs last weekend. But the Men's 5s continue to play their final games in West District 3.

A second half goal from Scott Menzies saw them take a share of the points last week in their last home game of the season. But it took last minute heroics from keeper Richard Higham to take a point. A "clumsy" tackle from Mike McBride on the edge of the circle gave Giffnock a PF and a chance to take all the points. But asymmetry Higham saved comfortably to secure the point.

As always the youngsters were the stars of the show. Adam MacKenzie was the pick of the bunch. In a tactical masterstroke, skipper Beedie dropped Adam into midfield where is energy and enthusiasm was much appreciated by the older legs in the team. While not quite matching  four MacArthur sisters playing for the ladies 1s, we did have the pleasure of playing with three Anderson brothers in the same team.

This week the 5s travel down to Largs to play Greenock in what should be the final league game of the season 2014-15
