Bombers forced to take longer road to gain a provincial fieldhockey berth
By The Nelson Daily Sports
The L.V. Rogers Bombers travel to Kelowna Tuesday to face Fraser Valley No. 3 in a B.C. High School Girl’s Fieldhockey Wildcard Game to determine the final berth in the provincial tournament.
LVR was forced to take the longer route to the provincials after the Rossland Royals scored the only goal of the game in a 1-0 victory during the West Kootenay Fieldhockey Final Thursday at Pass Creek Park in Robson.
The game was close throughout with the most of the contest being played in the midfield.
However, the Royals dominated penalty corners, which led to the lone goal.
Tuesday game is at 1 p.m. in Kelowna.
The B.C. High School AA Girl’s Fieldhockey Championships are scheduled for November 7-9 in Burnaby.
