Sam Baxter and Ellis Pike from the BFH (Best Friends Hockey) celebrate Pike's goal against College Old Boys during the final of the Men's Five-a-Side Hockey tournament in Stratford on Sunday.
Hockey and country music were on the bill for Taranaki this weekend - but in separate events.
The Taranaki Lighting 5’s Hockey Tournament was held in Stratford over the weekend, drawing 19 teams from all over the North Island.
The event is modelled off the Hockey Fast 5’s concept seen at the Nanjing Youth Olympics in 2014. Teams consisting of four field players and one goalie play games over a half field.
