Henley travelled away to top of the league Amersham and Chalfont, for what was to prove a challenging fixture for the Henley side. Both sides started well was attacking play going both ways, however, it was Amersham who asserted themselves most, showing some well-drilled flowing hockey. At the end of the first quarter, neither side had found a break through with Henley’s young keeper, Alex Woolfrey, making some top class saves between the Henley posts.

Unfortunately for the amber and blues, quarter 2 did some damage. After an early goal, Henley were put under increasing pressure when they had 2 players sin-binned simultaneously. The ensuing pressure was too much and a second goal was scored by the home side. Q2 saw two further goals, giving the Henley side an uphill battle to fight at half time.

Henley played with determination and both Harry Rechner and Danny Macallister came close to scoring in the second half, whilst Alex Woolfrey continued to be in inspired form, however, this week a goal just would not come. Amersham sealed Henley’s fate with one final goal, making the final score 5-0.

Next week, Henley welcome Oxford OBU to Jubilee Park where they will look to get back to winning ways.
