It’s down to the wire

This weekend saw the Mens 4s make the long awaited trip to Worksop who have been chasing us at the top of the table all season. With the 4s 3 points ahead of Worksop but with an identical goal difference, this shows just how close this season will be for us. A win would take us 6 point clear the top of the table whereas a loss would see Worksop draw level with only goal Read more

Dates for the diary…

We are now getting down to the business end of the season with several teams competing at the top of their leagues and hoping to gain promotion and bring home some silverware to Adel.  Sideline support is often a crucial factor in close games as the mens 1s will testify from their home game against Bradford a couple of weeks ago so please get along to support the other teams if you are able to Read more

A trip to the seaside can make a huge difference

The 3s travelled to Scarborough in high spirits and with a realistic sense of optimism. Considering the 9-1 reverse score line and a couple of key players missing this shows just how far we have come as a team this season. Following a 6-1 win on Saturday they started the game brightly.

Bens Bus keeps rolling

It was going to be difficult for the mens first team following the highs of last weekend. After beating Bradford 2-1 in front of a packed crowd at the Church Lane cauldron Bens boys had to pick themselves up to continue the push for promotion and 100% record against a Huddersfield team who had pushed them all the way in the first game of the season and only 2 very late goals ensuing a 4-3 Read more

If…

Men’s 5s took a 3-3 draw from Saturday’s tussle with Sheffield Bankers, once again providing the warm-up act for our first team, who will have picked up a few hints and tips from our freestyle champagne hockey.  Unlike the 1s we seldom manage “sixty seconds’ worth of distance run”, and every game is a mix of “triumph and disaster”, but there’s never a dull moment.   This was only our second draw of the season Read more
