Last summer, she not only competed in the England Hockey Challenge Cup with the Yorkshire U17 squad, she then went on to umpire the U15 competition as well! This year, having continued to umpire regular weekend fixtures, she was then given the opportunity to umpire her first international match at the end of April; England U18 Girls vs Wales U18 girls. It is always fantastic to see our students taking on a range of roles within their sport and we couldn't be prouder of Lucy for her commitment to both playing and umpiring at such a high standard.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<b>Mrs K Robinson<\/b>\r\n\r\n<b>Director of Sport<\/b>\r\n\r\n "],"_post_content_0_wysiwyg_content":["field_6101504d52250"],"post_content":["a:1:{i:0;s:7:\"wysiwyg\";}"],"_post_content":["field_610150165224f"],"show_on_foundation_site":["0"],"_show_on_foundation_site":["field_61af723bd88e3"],"description":[""],"_description":["field_62b2dc8959b81"],"_yoast_wpseo_estimated-reading-time-minutes":["0"],"_yoast_wpseo_wordproof_timestamp":[""],"wpb_post_views_count":["1100"],"_thumbnail_id":["3918"],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":["7"],"_uag_page_assets":["a:9:{s:3:\"css\";s:0:\"\";s:2:\"js\";s:0:\"\";s:18:\"current_block_list\";a:0:{}s:8:\"uag_flag\";b:0;s:11:\"uag_version\";s:10:\"1780472946\";s:6:\"gfonts\";a:0:{}s:10:\"gfonts_url\";s:0:\"\";s:12:\"gfonts_files\";a:0:{}s:14:\"uag_faq_layout\";b:0;}"]},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679.jpg",2547,1401,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-300x165.jpg",300,165,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-768x422.jpg",768,422,true],"large":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-1024x563.jpg",1024,563,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-1536x845.jpg",1536,845,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-2048x1127.jpg",2048,1127,true],"fullscreen":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-1920x1080.jpg",1920,1080,true],"page-header":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-1680x770.jpg",1680,770,true],"video":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-1280x720.jpg",1280,720,true],"80x80":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-80x80.jpg",80,80,true],"600x560":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-600x560.jpg",600,560,true],"card":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-600x405.jpg",600,405,true],"100x70":["https:\/\/assets.wgsf.org.uk\/2023\/05\/sports-eve-44-..-scaled-e1684830303679-100x70.jpg",100,70,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"harry","author_link":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/author\/harry\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3916"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3916"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3916\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3916"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3916"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wgsf.org.uk\/wghs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3916"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
