Teddington buoyed by draw
Hockey
Teddington's manager, Neil Campling, was a satisfied man on hearing their home draw against Canterbury in the quarter-final of the Association Cup, writes Bill Colwill.
"Realistically, to qualify for a second year in Europe our aim must be to win the cup. I will be looking forward to playing them with a full side," he said yesterday. Canterbury's manager, Graeme MacDonald, was less enthusiastic: "Not impossible," he said, "but we would have preferred a home draw."
Guildford, the cup holders, entertain Reading, while the National League leaders, Southgate, travel to Old Loughtonians.
HA CUP Quarter-finals: Havant v East Grinstead; Guildford v Reading; Old Loughtonians v Southgate; Teddington v Canterbury. (Ties to be played Saturday 16 March).
