'It’s fantastic to see that hard work pay off' - talented teenager represents country

A TALENTED teenager is celebrating after representing England under 16s in his sport.

Hockey player Alistair Broadwith, 14, who goes to Cundall Manor School near Easingwold recently represented England U16s at the prestigious Six Nations Tournament, facing elite teams from across Europe including Germany, Austria, Belgium, Scotland, and Ireland.


Demonstrating exceptional skill and composure, Alistair  helped England secure an impressive 3rd place finish, culminating in a 3-1 victory over Austria in the final match.

In addition to his international success, Alistair was named Young Player of the Season at the City of York Hockey Club’s Senior Awards Dinner – a recognition of his outstanding season playing with the club’s men’s first team.

Alistair’s hockey journey began at Thirsk Hockey Club at the age of six, where he played until just a few months ago. The following year, he began hockey lessons as part of the sporting timetable at Cundall Manor in Year 3.
