Fiona Laird – 1st
XI Captain
Nickname: Flooze/
mouth
Reason for nickname:
Years in club: 5
Position: LH
Description: Our beloved captain has been a long term member of the 1st team due to her over-enthusiasm on and off the pitch. She’s a nuisance to the opposition with her persistent tackling and she can be identified from the opposite side of the pitch by her mincing running technique and her million word per hour phrases of encouragement.

Sarah Quinn – Left
Back
Nickname: Quinn dog
Reason for nickname:
She’s the Dawg
Years in club: 5
Position: LB
Description: Last years club captain, straight talking Sarah has the organisational skills of a demon- she could organise a piss up in a mosque! She is a fantastic hockey player who utilises both her speed and agility to expertly defend the goal with the added bonus of a brilliant attacking drive, which she demonstrates week-in and week-out. Sarah is a real asset to the team and is sorely missed when she’s away!

Sabrina Black
Nickname: Bizzle
Reason for nickname:
If you take off the Sa at the start and the rina at the end and add izzle on it
makes Bizzle.
Years in club: 6
Position: The Sabrina
Position
Description: This good old ‘Broad Bean Broad Bean’ is known to shake her hips like Shakira (when she’s not otherwise immobilised by agricultural peasants from our sister college) Sabrina is a gift on the pitch as well as on the dance floor where she cuts shapes like no other! Very little needs to be said about Sabrina’s class and finesse on the pitch. She is an extraordinary player who distributes beautifully and lifts the game of those around her. She’s so talented on the pitch she even has a position named after her…. God forbid the day someone takes over the reigns of the Sabrina Position!
Would most like to
meet: A male of Indian descent with a large face to head ratio who has an
inability to tie his own shoe laces and has a tendency towards umpiring womens
hockey.

Sabrina –
“Making... sweet... passion!”
Classic Moment:
Sabrina refused to let GKT award themselves UH cup final medals… Her speech
began “You whipped our arses but we took the moral victory!” and handed out
medals herself! Sabrina is the only drunk person at this time – she requested her own medal but was denied the privilege.

Reason for nickname:
No one knows!
Years in club: 2
Position: RB
Description: Despite
her geeky exterior she is a talented addition to the 1st team,
playing some descent hockey in between her Surgical Soc meetings. She is a strong defender whose determination will keep her
fighting till the very end. Her commitment has been fantastic this year
and she has been playing for both the Medics and ULU, which is evident
on the pitch.Being voted
as this year’s web master has played into her nerdy little hands
extraordinarily well so far as she’s done a smashing job with the website.
Future Captain material, this youngster has a promising future ahead of her in
the club.

Reason for nickname:
She’s the lesser of the two evils
Years in club: 5
Position: RH
Description: This
permanently tanned, immuno-suppressed member of the first team is a real
asset…. If only she could control her violent outbursts on the pitch caused by
her competitive nature as a triplet.

people can play sport, it’s just they shouldn’t be playing hockey… they should

XI Vice Captain
Nickname: The mute (recently
been revoked)
Reason for nickname:
Only two words left her mouth during her first ever Oxford Tour
Years in club: 3
Position: CF
Description: This timid girl has somewhat come out of her shell in the last year. I believe there’s a story about leaving blue paint all over a boys bathroom? She is consistent and solid in attack and has been a supportive and reliable Vice Captain throughout the year.
