Marquis Dalefield men's hockey team put in a very creditable performance against a strong Indians team in Wellington on Saturday despite coming away on the wrong end of a 4-2 scoreline.
The Clareville-based side went in to the fixture four squad members short but despite the odds rose to the occasion and put in a very respectful performance.
"We played well, in fact very very well, especially in the second half," said team manager Dave Blackwood.
"The game was a free-flowing, exciting affair where we limited them to few scoring chances but those they had they converted."
