Recreio Hockey Annual General Meeting 2006. The hockey section held its AGM on July 26th at Recreio. The minutes can be viewed by clicking on the link at the bottom of the page.
In summary, with only 41 players registered for the men's section to date, it may become necessary to drop one team in the coming season. A final decision will be made on or before August 15th.
Congratulations were offered to the Ladies' "A" team for winning the Division 2 title and promotion to the 1st Division next season, as well as other silverware. Recreio Centenary Year 2006 marks the 100th anniversary of Club de Recreio in Hong Kong, and the various sections have been celebrating this event over the past few months.
The official anniversary date is November 26th, 2006, and the hockey section is planning to hold its inaugural Centenary Cup competition the day before to mark the occasion.
What we would like to do is to have two of our men's teams and the two ladies' teams invite opponents to challenge for a bowl and plate, with the Cup going to the winner of the match between a Recreio Old & Bold team and a Hockey Association President's XI. This would be a fun match with as many players as desired rolling on and off to enjoy the match.
If the idea is approved, the trophies would be donated to the Hockey Association and be contested in a one-day tournament to be organized by the Association. Inspiration My sister D'Ann sent this to me and I found it very touching, so I thought I'd share it here.
