They opened with a hard-fought 0\u20130 draw against LX, followed by a 2\u20130 loss to England, before finishing on a high with an impressive 3\u20130 victory over Scotland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That win proved particularly historic, with Gaynor Nash becoming the first-ever goalscorer for the Wales Women\u2019s Over-70s side, netting twice in the match. In doing so, she added another remarkable milestone to her name, having also been the first goalscorer when the Wales Over-65s squad was initially formed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:18px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32432\" style=\"width:470px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-391x260.jpg 391w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/wsa.wales\/wp-content\/uploads\/cc332ca8-0bf9-463b-b939-4b7d2d663074-1-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:11px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sherry Shawcross added the third goal in the victory over Scotland, sealing a memorable result for the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Head Coach Hilary Hooper-Williams, the occasion was deeply personal. \u201cThis was one of the proudest moments of my career,\u201d she said. \u201cTo see these women step onto the pitch in a Wales shirt for the first time at this level was truly special.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than just a sporting milestone, the team represented a powerful celebration of dedication, resilience, and enduring passion. The squad brought together a unique blend of experience and new beginnings, some players returning to international hockey after decades, others earning their first national caps later in life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, they embodied a simple but powerful message: sport has no age limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTheir commitment has been incredible,\u201d Hilary added. \u201cEvery training session showed their determination, their humour, and their unwavering belief in what they were doing.

It marked not only a historic debut, but a redefining of sporting longevity and national pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the team walked out wearing the Welsh dragon, it signalled more than the start of a match. It marked a historic first, a celebration of lifelong sport, and a powerful statement of belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In doing so, the Wales Women\u2019s Over-70s squad did not just make history, they began to reshape it.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wales Hockey Masters Women\u2019s O70s Make History at Home Nations Debut A groundbreaking chapter
