PLUS ALL STARS, the defending men’s champions, got their 2012 Banks International Hockey Festival campaign off to a flying start yesterday, with three victories on the opening day of competition.
The Stars began an 11-0 blanking of a young Woodbrook team from Trinidad and Tobago early in the morning before having to fight off more spirited local opponents later in the day.
But they were up to the task, defeating the plucky Barbados Defence Force 2-1 and finally seeing off Du Badd Crew by the same scoreline.
Their whipping of Woodbrook was led by four goals from Jamar Small and a double from Dario Jordan, while Damien Downes, Gregory Best, Dario Lewis and veteran Jeffrey Webb were also on the scoresheet.
