Harris Academy F.P. Hockey Club

Despite atrocious weather conditions there was a strong turnout, particularly among the young players, for the George Mechan Tournament on Saturday 9th August 2008 at Dawson Park. Almost 30 players came along to participate in the traditional Harris Hockey Club pre-season warm-up.

The event began with a full pitch game with both teams selected on the day from those attending. There was then a short break during which a BBQ was provided (capably staffed by Mrs Moir). Following the BBQ four teams were selected from those present and a mini-tournament organised with the glory of lifting the George Mechan Memorial Trophy adding to the competitive atmosphere.

The winning team on the day was: Jamie Carnegie, Steven Moir, Colin Wilkie, Fergus Wilson (Snr), Fergus Wilson (Jnr) & Adam McArtney.

Thanks to Steven Moir for organising this event and the ladies who ensured that the BBQ was a great success.
