HOCKEY: Bromsgrove ladies seconds were held to a 1-1 draw by Harborne's third team.

Town played exceptionally well against a Harborne side who spent last season in a higher league.

Their goal came from a fine aerial finish by Ruth Brent.

Captain Anna Evans praised her team.

She said: "We had a much-changed team today with Sophie Duncan, Amy Dwyer, Linzi Foulkes and Zoe Harris joining Jenny as under-18 players.

"Our more experienced players ably supported them.

"It was really pleasing to welcome back new mum Donna McGettigan."
