Weekly round ups have had a rest for a few weeks, but in their absence there has been plenty of hockey at Adel and this last weekend was no exception.

Adel navigated their way through another two weekend fixtures unscathed and still moving forward. Saturday saw a home tie with Doncaster in what was felt to be a warm-up for Sunday’s cup match.

And then in the blink of an eye, the bright yellow sun came out and the colourful rainbow arced over Read more
