Video: Duchess of Cambridge plays hockey during London 2012 Olympic Park tour Having been captain of the first XI hockey team at school, the Duchess had told aides she was "very excited" to have a chance to play with the national hockey team, but when she was handed a stick she told the players: "I haven't played since I stopped so I am really nervous now!" The 30-year-old Duchess, an ambassador for the London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics, arrived at the venue in east London wearing skin tight coral three quarter length jeans, blue heels and a blue blazer with an official Team GB supporters' scarf. She changed into a grey GB sweatshirt and Adidas trainers for her time on the bright pink and blue coloured pitch, but kept her jeans on, joking that they clashed with the garish Astroturf. In the event, she need not have worried, as she scored with her first shot from in front of goal. The Great Britain hockey squad later presented the Duchess with a replica shirt with 'Cambridge 1' emblazoned on the back as a memento of her visit.
