Some game results from 1999:

Date: Saturday, 10th July 1999
Location: Adelaide Hockey Club
Time: 2:00pm
Home Game? Yes
Weather: Sunny and warm

Again, Pulteney were forced to play with 9 players today due to the absence of a few, but that did not stop the fantastic effort the whole team put into this match. Adelaide Uni had a full team, which allowed them to interchange. Because POS did not have this option, many players started to slow down a bit towards the end (understandably!!). POS' short game has improved dramatically over this season and today was the difference between the two sides. Pulteney scored freely during the match, thanks to some excellent hits into the circle where our players were in the right spot at the right time. POS also did not clutter up the circle (it's hard to do when there are players short...) which helped a great deal.

The final score was:
PULTENEY 5
ADELAIDE UNI 3
 

Date: Sunday, 4th July 1999
Location: Seacliff Hockey Club
Time: 12:30
Home Game? No
Weather: Clear skies, nice and warm

Well, the dark glasses were defiantly out after last night!! (Old Scholars Dinner) The team pulled it together early in the match but was often caught short by Westminster. The first half nearly went by without a score but Pulteney scored with a few minutes left. Pulteney also had many open players throughout the match which created many opportunities for scoring. In the last minute of the match, we received a short corner, which Adam Baida converted.

The final score was:
PULTENEY 2
WESTMINSTER 0
 

Date: Saturday, 29th May 1999
Location: Adelaide Hockey Club, Greenhill Road
Time: 12:30pm
Home Game? Yes
Weather: Overcast, windy and cold.

The game was a fast, tough match and goals were not easy to come by. Flinders scored off of a short corner early in the match and the only other score in the first half was when James Hand converted from a stroke.
The second half was even tougher than the first half. Pulteney moved the ball around well and both Nick Ford and scored from plays.

The final score was:
PULTENEY 3
FLINDERS 2
 

Date: Sunday, 1st August 1999
Location: North East Hockey Club, Golden Grove
Time: 3:30pm
Home Game? No
Weather: Overcast with a cool breeze

The game started at a furious pace from both sides, with both sides going all out to score early. In the first fifteen minutes of play, the score was 2-1 to Pulteney but in the last five minutes of the half our defense got caught napping and an own goal occurred off the keeper. At half time, the scores were locked at two all. The second half was some what lacking from the Pulteney side, which allowed North East to gain the upper hand in the match.

The final score was:
PULTENEY 2
NORTH EAST 5
