ANZAC DAY CENTENARY COMMEMORATION GAME Premier League Men's Hockey Adelaide 1 North East 7? (Part 1)

The game was played at Adelaide's home ground Pea Park at
4pm on ANZAC DAY 25 April 2015.
The sounding of the last post followed by 1 minutes silence
preceded the game, in honor of  Australians and New Zealanders
who have served in the armed forces and in particular, in recognition
of the Centenary of ANZAC, the landing at Gallipoli on April 25 1915,
which heralded our countries foray into World War 1.
Prominent and promising sports people served their country and to
commemorate the day competing in sport is a fitting tribute.
In military terms the score may have reflected a rout.
North East was able to penetrate Adelaide's defenses.
