We turn the clock back to 1975, when the under-15 hockey girls from Hexham’s Queen Elizabeth Grammar School celebrated a record-breaking season.

The line-up of Brenda Glendinning, Pauline Harris, Anne Tallon, Carloe Taylor, Janie Watson (capt.), Anne Murray, Jill Raine, Gillian Richardson, Helen Walker, Helen Hutchinson, Caron Etherington and Cathy Soudain lost only one in 17 games, and five of them represented Northumberland County.
