Grand Masters Hockey World Cup- Cape Town, South Africa

15th - 24th September 2010

England and LX Club gain clean sweep
at the Grand Masters Hockey World Cup in Cape Town

On the last day of the World Cup first off were England Senior Grand Masters against Australia which England won 2-1 (having already won with this game to spare) and thus won all 6 of their games.

Next off were England Great Grand Masters also against Australia which England won 2-0 and accordingly England GGM are also World Champions (a satisfactory reversal of the 2008 World Cup where England GGM lost to Australia on penalty flicks).

Last off were England Grand Masters again against Australia (who they had played and lost to 2 days ago) and England gained their revenge by winning 3-1 and retaining the World Cup which they won at the last World Cup in 2008 in Hong Kong.

England LX (O60s) won their final match of the Tournament on Thursday against Alliance B to finish winners of the Tournament Trophy for the Over 60's category. The same day England LX (over 65's) won their last match to finish winners of the Over 65's category
