Chichester lose to Cheltenham in England Hockey Championship quarter-finals
Trailing 2-0 at the break to a fourth-minute penalty corner conversion by Tom Cole and a second from Craig Graham, Chichester took a grip of the game after the break.
Luke Emmett, back with the city club after a spell in Holland, marked his return with a goal which sparked a potential revival but despite forcing several penalty corners and putting the visitors under pressure they were unable to force an equaliser.
