Article from the Reading Evening Post

Olympics star Chloe Rogers proved an inspiration for budding hockey players at The Abbey School.

The Great Britain hockey international spoke to the schoolgirls about her Olympic training and what it takes to be a good hockey player before autographing their hockey sticks and trainers.

Hockey players from Year 6 at The Abbey Junior School joined Years 7 to 9 for the afternoon of hockey-related activities, which included a training session led by the international.

Nicky Hurley, development and communications officer at the Kendrick Road school, said: “Chloe’s visit was a bit of inspiration for the hockey teams.

“They all had an absolutely wonderful time and the girls that came up from the junior school now know what to expect in terms of hockey when they come up to the seniors.”
