Trustees leapfrog Police in G/A hockey league

As expected, two-time champions, Trustees from SSNIT, over the weekend, were in fantastic form to record a narrow win against GRA to move to the summit of the league table over the weekend.

Sabeeni Salya broke the deadlock in the 45th minute after a brilliant individual play taking his team’s tally to 18points after 6 games.

Title contenders, Police, who were at the summit of the league table before the weekend’s fixture, failed to maintain their unbeaten run after they lost 3-2 to Golden Sticks.

Edmund Aryeetey who, head coach of league leaders, Trustees, says his team has a lot to do if they want to defend their title.

“It was an empress game for us, but we need to work each day if indeed we want to win the trophy again, our competitors are doing well and we have to up our game each day.”

“The league is very difficult and I’m not surprised even police, who were leading the table, lost to Golden sticks.”

Meanwhile in the other games, Exchequers redeemed their image by winning 1-0 against Reformers.
