Ipswich High School Head of PE World Hockey Champion

Over the Easter holidays, our Head of PE, Lizzy Wheelhouse, proudly represented England at the Indoor Hockey World Cup and returned home as a world champion!

The team enjoyed a fantastic tournament, recording impressive victories in the pool stages against the USA (11-2), Ireland (8-1), and France (9-0), before drawing 4-4 with Germany in a thrilling contest. After progressing to the final, they once again faced Germany in an exciting and closely fought match, securing a dramatic 5-4 victory with the winning goal coming just four minutes from the end.

Next up for Lizzy are the Home Nations tournament in June, followed by the Outdoor World Cup in August. We wish her the very best of luck for the tournaments ahead.
