BALLYMENA Academy hockey teams recently refelcted another successful campaign with their end-of-year awards night.
Among the achievements celebrated were the First XI losing only one game. They reached the quarter-final of the Schools’ Cup, losing on penalties to Omagh Academy, and also finished runners-up in the Derry and Antrim League.
