Glory for women in Inter-Island champs

There was delight and disappointment for the Isle of Man hockey teams in the Inter-Island Hockey tournament.

Both men’s and women’s teams qualified for the final after good results in the biennial event.

The men lost 5-0 to an impressive Guernsey side at the National Sports Centre.

However, there was glory for the women as they retained the title they won in 2011 with a 3-1 victory over Orkney.

Strikes from Imogen Manning, Zoe Carney and Sarah Blackman sealed the victory.
