Women's results

Marlow 1sts travelled to Bournemouth knowing that they had already secured promotion to the National League. Bournemouth opened the scoring within the first two minutes, showing how clinical they are in the attacking circle. Martha Goodridge equalized minutes later with a shot from a penalty corner. Lauren Hilditch put Marlow ahead in the 7th minute after some fantastic speed and attacking play. Both sides looked strong in attack but vulnerable in defence. Marlow keeper Alys Ramm made numerous saves but could not keep Bournemouth from scoring in the 16th minute to level the scores again. The home side scored again in the 29th minute to take the lead going into half time.

Marlow came out fighting in the second half with Hilditch scoring her second of the game in the opening minute. Bournemouth scored again in the 50th minute to put the pressure back on the Reds. Rachel Clarke showed great determination to win the ball back and forge forward, finding Hilditch to complete her hat trick to level the score once again. Bournemouth bounced back and scored to secure all three points.

Men's Results

The Men's 1st team were at home to 2nd placed Oxford OBU who were lively in attack and well organised in defence. However, the first half was even as far as possession was concerned but Marlow could create few chances whilst the visitors won two penalty corners both expertly converted to put them two up at halftime. In the second half Marlow were on the attack most of the time and playing some excellent hockey but all to no avail. They tested the goalkeeper on several occasions and passes that might have led to goals came to nothing, Oxford OBU were still dangerous on the break and forced a succession of corners which the Marlow defence did well to keep out but from one of them a follow up led to a third goal, Marlow remain in 6th place well ahead of the teams below witn two matches to play.

The 2nd team payed Maidenhead 1 away and won 4-0. Two goals were scored by former Maidenhead players Alec Land and Phiol Cowell, the others by Dan Field and Mal Allick. They are also in 6th place in their first season at this level.
