Hockey Matters: Is ‘3 cheers’ tradition dying ?

Buckingham player Lottie Porter took to social media this month to highlight what she considered to be the dying tradition of the ‘3 cheers’ at the end of the match.

Porter said that three Top 6 teams in the Vitality Women’s Premier Division had failed to offer the formality.

“It seems “3 cheers” is dying a death,” she wrote on Twitter. “Is it bad sportsmanship or are loads of teams not doing it now?! Or maybe our score lines haven’t deserved it.”

Hip, Hip, Hurray? Or is Lottie right and it is beginning to fade come full-time? Or is it just fading at elite level?

It seems “3 cheers” is dying a death. 3 premier league teams haven’t done it at the end of our games this season (all top 6 teams I might add…) is it bad sportsmanship or are loads of teams not doing it now?! Or maybe our score lines haven’t deserved it 😂🙈

Responses to her tweet suggested that tradition is still alive and well, although there were instances where sportsmanship wasn’t observed.

“Definitely still something being done around the Midlands,” write Stephen Tabb.

“We gave an additional 3 cheers for our Umpires on Monday for managing to officiate an excellent game in the fog and when you couldn’t actually see across the whole pitch as a player!”
