Men’s first drew in 2023_24 Season

The first drew of Lisbon Casuals Hockey Club’s men’s field hockey team was a thrilling and memorable encounter played under challenging weather conditions in Santa Maria de Lamas. As heavy rain poured down on the field, the players showcased their dedication and love for the sport. The slick and waterlogged pitch added an extra layer of complexity to the game, as players had to constantly adjust their techniques and adapt to the conditions.
