The team made it through the morning matches and went on to beat Bishops Stortford 2-1 in the quarter final and Felsted School by the same score in the semis.

It has been an excellent year for Chafyn as all four main hockey teams – girls under-11s, under-13s and boys under-11s and under-13s – qualified for the national finals.
