When Scotland's women hockey team was invited to play against West Germany in Berlin in September 1961, it was just weeks after the Berlin Wall had been constructed. Many feared the world was on the verge of war.

Four players from Scotland's team recall playing hockey and politics as they came face to face with the shocking reality of the Berlin Crisis. With aggression and war once again on the agenda in Europe, two of the team, Jenna and Valerie, revisit the city for the first time in 60 years.

An uair a chaidh fiathachadh a thoirt do sgioba hocaidh na h-Alba cluiche an aghaidh Taobh Siar na Gearmailt san t-Sultain 1961, cha robh ach beagan sheachdainean bho chaidh Balla Bherlin a thogail. Bha eagal air mòran gun robh an saoghal air starsach cogadh eile. Ann an Hocaidh a’ Chogaidh Fhuar, tha ceathrar bhoireannach bho sgioba na h-Alba a cuimhneachadh mar a chluich iad hocaidh agus poileataigs ’s iad air an glacadh an teas mheadhain Staing Bherlin. Aig àm an uair a tha gnothaichean frionasach a-rithist san Roinn Eòrpa, tha dithis dhiubh, Jenna agus Valerie a’ siubhal gu Berlin airson a’ chiad turas ann an trì fichead bliadhna sa meòrachadh air a’ bhuaidh a thug a’ chiad thuras air am beathannan fhèin agus air eachdraidh a’ Chogaidh Fhuar.
