Reece Gilden won the Men's Golden Stick holding off a tight challenge from Gerard Tan who must now be regretting introducing Reece to the club!



Reece said: "Winning the golden stick means a hell of a lot to me this year.


I was very close to not playing hockey this year and I have to give a massive thank you to Gerard for not letting that happen. By coincidence I met Gerard before the season started and told him how I was on the fence about playing because I didn't have a team up here in Auckland that I was committed to anymore. He quickly told me about the P3 side he was playing in and although I missed trials I had an email from GB that night saying there was a spot for me. I am very grateful to have met Gerard and also thankful to GB for being very welcoming and making room for me even though he had no idea who I was.


The P3 men's side is an exceptional group of lads who all want to play good hockey and win. They also want to have fun and socialise and I think our team culture was excellent this season and that culture transferred into how we played our hockey and was a big reason for our success. Although we didn't go all the way, what a hell of a season it was. It was a great feeling being back on the field and slotting some balls in the net and I hope to enjoy more of the same next year."
