To celebrate all things field hockey over the years, we are sharing field hockey pictures through the ages on Facebook and Twitter. Our first throwback of 2014 sent us back to 1976 with the Team BC Junior Team. Many great field hockey players were on this team including Lynne Beecroft, Sandy Tufnail, and Nancy Moore, who all went on to play for the Canadian National Team! Have any vintage pictures you'd like to share with us? Send them to info@fieldhockeybc.com
