SOPHIA CHOUDHURY, HOCKEY PERFORMANCE COACH IN RESIDENCE

During the first week of the October half term, 73 Queenswood hockey players and 11 members of the Sports Department embarked on their tour to Barcelona.

Pupils had the opportunity to learn from some of the best hockey coaches around, while also facing up against some tough local opposition.

There was, of course, plenty of time for some sightseeing, shopping and sunbathing in between, and it was a pleasure to have so many of our players in Barcelona.

A fantastic visual record can be seen on the Queenswood Sport Instagram account, but here are a handful of pictures that sum up the week.

We’d like to say a massive thank you to Sander van der Weide for making the trip happen, and to all the pupils and staff from Queenswood for all of their efforts and hard work!
