Grammarians fail to get promotion after losing shoot-out

20th May 2018

Gibraltarian hockey club Grammarians took it to the very wire this Sunday as they made their bid for promotion from the Euro Hockey Challenge II.
Having reached the crossover promotion play-offs, winning their group, they were drawn against Whitchurch from Wales who were runners up in the other group.
Whitchurch led in the first period but saw the match end with a 4-4. A subsequent shoot-out saw Grammarians drop their chance of promotion as Whitchurch hit three past them against their solitary goal wining the shootout 3-1.
