The ENB men's team had a stellar start defeating WNB and battled on gallantly to reach the bronze medal play off which went down to the wire with ENB scoring the goal of the tournament to level the game at the dying minutes. Game went into 'The challenge' which saw good goalkeeping skills from both sides. Nicholas Stanley did amazingly well up against the more fancied Pom players. ENB finished 4th. Well done to one and all!

A young team with heart and the passion for hockey- Team ENB women's hockey team claiming the Most Improved Team with K1000 prize money during the 2019 National Hockey Championships. Although results didnt go our way, this team of novice hockey players held their own against the top Pom team almost keeping them to a nil all draw by displaying their never say die spirit. Due to questionable umpiring decision last minute goal scored against WNB was disallowed. Results- Game 1 Pom3 6 def. ENB 0
Game 2 Pom2 3 def. ENB 0
Game 3 Pom3 1 def. ENB 0
Game 4 WNB 1 def. ENB 0

On behalf of ENBHA we would like to extend our sincere gratitude to family and friends whom contributed one way or another to help their children prepare for their trip to Port Moresby for the National Hockey Championships. A word of appreciation to Lomot Kaukia and family for their donation. We will do our best for ENBHA.
The team is well. We had first training session on synthetic turf yesterday and the team is excited for game day on Saturday 14-9-19
