Sport / Shetland behind after first day of junior inter county
THERE is still all to play for on the second day of the junior inter county on Sunday after the Blues were defeated by their rivals from Orkney in both the hockey and the football.
Shetland was narrowly ahead 48.5 to 47 after the morning athletics but was unable to add any more points to the tally during the day.
A narrow 1-0 defeat in the hockey and an emphatic 4-0 win by the Orcadians in the football resulted in the Blues being behind by 23.5 points (72 – 48.5) after the first day.
The Junior Inter County continues on Sunday with the netball and swimming, both events are being held at the Clickimin in Lerwick.
The competition can be followed live on the Shetland Junior Inter County Association’s Facebook page here.
