This is Bath -- Team Bath Buccs under-16s girls confirmed their place in next month's regional round of the England Hockey Cup with a resounding 6-0 triumph at Devizes on Sunday. Lizzie Mayo opened the scoring for Buccs before Susie Barnes squared the ball for Olivia Allin to double their lead at the break. Eliza Matthews' delicious 50-yard pass gave Holly Jackson the chance to finish coolly and Barnes added the third before a brace from emergency forward Jenni Pitchford-Pecchi rounded off the win. Buccs' under-14s A suffered defeats to Bournemouth and Havant in testing conditions in Portsmouth. Maddie Matthews' goal gave Buccs some hope in a 2-1 loss to Bournemouth but they were well beaten by Havant, going down 6-1 despite taking the lead through Olivia Selvey. The B team fared much better at home to Cheltenham and Reading, picking up a 2-1 win and a 2-2 draw respectively to delight manager Rowan Overeynder.
