U10B v Grace Dieu U10A Lost 19-1

Unfortunately this was rather a one sided match and Grace Dieu A team would have been a far better match for our U10A’s. However, our B team girls tried hard to improve their play and didn’t seem to lose spirit despite the heavy defeat.
Poppy S created some good passes through the centre third and Amelia M tried hard to adapt to her new role in defense. Izzy F captained the side incredibly well and scored our only goal in the 2nd quarter.
Coaching tips for the future might involve learning how to use the spring in their legs to jump for the ball, snatching the ball quickly, marking more closely and moving into spaces before signaling for the ball.
Although we lost the match, we certainly didn’t let it dampen our spirits too much. It was a pleasure to accompany the girls on this match. Thanks also to Mr Weller who kindly offered to drive us to the match.
