Player In Demand
Mrs Joan Capstick has created a record for the Hinemoa Women’s Hockey Club, Kaiapoi, by having been selected for every representative team since she was in the primary school grade about 13 years ago. As Joan Black, before her marriage, she first played as a full-back for the club but in the intervening years has played in nearly every position and now is a half. Mrs Capstick, now aged 23 years, has played for the club for 13 years. Before the alteration in the grading system, about five years ago, she was
selected for each grade, consecutively, and has since continued under the new method until now she is a member of the Canterbury A team, to play for the K. Cup.
