Great Britain's women ended their Hockey Pro League season with a penalty shootout win over Belgium on Saturday.
After playing out a 1-1 draw in Amsterdam, GB won 4-2 on penalties to secure their third shootout bonus point of the campaign.
Sophie Hamilton put GB into a 14th-minute lead before Belgium drew level just after half-time through Charlotte Englebert following a penalty corner.
Hamilton then failed to convert her effort in the shootout but Amy Costello, Anna Toman, Isabelle Petter and Charlotte Watson all struck for GB.
They were already assured of finishing seventh in the nine-team league, with three wins and four draws from 16 games overall.
GB's men ended their Hockey Pro League season on Friday with a shootout defeat by Germany after a 3-3 draw, meaning they finished third in the table.
