Benedict shines in Capital hockey

Former Wairarapa player Benedict van Woerkom has been a star performer for the Capital men's team at the national league hockey tournament in Auckland this week. He is shown above forcing his way through the middle of two Central defenders in a match won by Capital 4-2. Another impressive 6-1 win over Northland on Tuesday took Capital to the top of the points table. Heading the women's competition are unbeaten Canterbury and Auckland.
