Player of the Match = Jessica P, for her super shooting today1
U11(Blues) Squad: Vicky A (GA), Jessica P (GS), Gabby N (GD), Belen G (GK), Ella R (WD); Amelia W(C), Sophia D (WA).
Witham won the toss and elected to take the first centre pass. They were quick to score their first goal, but this proved to be the only goal of this quarter, despite both teams having their chances. In the second quarter Vicky scored two goals for us and Sophia played very well, assisting with the flow of the ball into the D, to set the shooters up. Witham also scored two goals, so still led us by one goal at half time.
The third quarter was our best, and saw us taking the lead for the first time, with Jess scoring four superb goals. Our defence also worked hard to win the ball, timing their interceptions well and working hard under the post to secure th rebounds. The last quarter was nail biting and very exciting for the supporters. Gabby and Belen continued to defend tightly and Jess scored two more goals for us. We were just pipped in the closing seconds of the game, with Witham managing one more goal, to go just ahead.
A great team performance by all, well played and thanks to everyone who came to support.
Ranby House unfortunately did not have another team to field against us, so we played one full length game, rather than two shorter ones.

Thanks to Mrs Shaeper for umpiring this game for us, it was super to see her again. Miss Skipp is currently enjoying a well deserved holiday with her family and will be back after half term.
