NEWS OF OLD BRUTONIANS OB HOCKEY – March 13th 2005 VETS ENJOY RITUAL SLAUGHTER VETERANS V KSB 2ND XI. A fine sunny morning welcomed the OB’s veterans side back to Bruton, who were intent on maintaining their unbeaten record since the introduction of this fixture in the late 80s. John Fleming, last year’s heroic stand-in goalie and captain, was unavailable as he was still suffering from shock after witnessing England’s surprise win over Italy at Twickenham the previous day. However, 11 old boys were present and, aided by Yoda, the school’s first team goalie, they took the field with the luxury of having a rolling substitute to cater for weary legs and lungs. It wasn’t long before the slick passing of the OB’s had the School’s midfield and defence in disarray. A wellworked build-up through Al MacEwen, John Townley, Rob Scott and Craig Rogers saw the ball into the D, from where Fraser Stewart slipped the ball to brother Duncan to tap into an empty net. The majority of the first half was spent in the School’s half, partly through the boys’ poor distribution at their 16-yard hits and through the OB’s organised midfield. The territorial advantage was reflected in the half-time scoreline, by which time MacEwen had netted two goals. It could, and should, have been more, but for some wayward shooting from the Stewart brothers, with Fraser in particular turning gilt-edged chances into guilt-ridden misses. In the second half, the School offered increased resistance, which tested the OB’s defence, but the experienced combination of Tom Taylor, Colin Coutts, Sam Jenkinson and the evergreen David Harris stifled the pressure. A second goal for Duncan Stewart extended the lead to 4-0 before the School finally opened their account with a well-taken goal on the break. The OB’s were still comfortably in control, with the not-so-veteran Marc Rogers linking well with the midfield down the right side. This line of attack led to a goal from Fraser Stewart (finally getting one on target) before Duncan completed his hat-trick. As the OB’s stretched for number 7 with Sam Jenkinson and Rob Scott narrowly being denied goals, the School managed a late consolation to end the game 6-2. Many thanks to John Fleming for his organisation (and delegation!), and to the players, and particularly to the School for laying on an excellent lunch. Fraser Stewart GIRLS' HOCKEY Following several years without a fixture between the School and Old Girls, it was pleasing to see the latter field a full side for what is hoped to be an annual event. For many of the Old Brutonians this was the first time they had played since leaving school, so there were a few rule changes to get to grips with and some cobwebs to be blown away before taking to the field. The School took the initiative with an early goal and, although the OB’s responded quickly with an equalizer from a short corner, by half time the School had restored their one goal advantage. In the second half the School benefited from superior fitness levels and team cohesion (one or two of the OB’s looked a little jaded from the previous evening’s reunion!). Despite a spirited display from the Old Girls, the School completed the game as deserved 5 -1 winners. Many thanks to all from both teams who gave up their Sunday morning to take part. Thanks also to the School for hosting the match and providing such a delicious tea afterwards. The efforts of Kate Sedgman in organizing the Old Girls and Captaining the team on the day were also greatly appreciated. We hope to raise a full team again next year - a few substitutes would be a welcome addition! Lizzie Sedgman (W97/99) DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR FOR KING’S Many OB s will be aware that the Governors made a decision some months ago to set up a Development function to put the School’s fund-raising on a fully professional footing. After a thorough search they have appointed Mr. Richard Claas as Development Director. Mr. Claas is currently Development Director at The Godolphin and Latymer School in Hammersmith. He will take up his appointment in July 2005. In addition to appearing in publications covering the professional fund-raising sector, the post was advertised through the Old Brutonian website, and Governors are grateful to those Old Brutonians who responded. On the same day the OBA 1st XI beat the School 1st XI by six points to five. Unfortunately no report of that match is available. SCHOOL SPORT RESULTS Owing to lack of space it has not been possible this year to include any of the School's sports results. We apologise for this omission. 36 OLD BRUTONIAN ASSOCIATION NEWSLETTER 2005
