Vikings to Face Newcastle

Vikings Ladies will face Newcastle in the quarter-finals of the English Hockey Vase competition.

On Sunday, they beat Stratford 3-0 to follow wins over Ambleside and Penrith in the earlier rounds.

Newcastle are currently top of the Northumberland Womens Hockey "A" League having won 8 of their 9 fixtures so far - the other game ended in a draw.

In the Vase, Newcastle have beaten South Lakes, Norton and Lymnm.

As a guide, South Lakes play in the same league as Ambleside and Penrith but are below them both in the table.
Newcastle beat South Lakes 5-0 while Vikings registered a 7-0 success over Ambleside and an 8-3 victory over Penrith.

Vikings match with Newcastle is another home affair so they will probably make Newcastle travel to Liverpool on Sunday 13th March.
