02.11.13 - Men's 1s vs Bude A (Away)

Teign Go Top With Win over Bude A
Teign Men’s 1st XI picked up three points on their travels with a comfortable 7-1 win over Bude A, taking top spot in the Southern 2 League table in the process.
Gale force winds meant that playing with the wind was a surreal advantage. In the first half Teign had the wind with them and goals from Tom Brooks (2), Ben Ayres (2) and Henry Burningham killed the contest before the interval.  In the second half Teign had to battle the elements to convert their chances and were only able to add two more; Dave Jeffs continuing his run of goals and Tom Brooks completing his hat-trick. However, it was an ugly and unpleasant half of hockey; communication in the wind was impossible, as was moving the ball and even running at times, so Teign were grateful of the final whistle.
Tavistock lost away to Marjons B meaning that Teign went clear at the top by a point. This weekend Teign face unbeaten USHC Plymouth at home.
