The girls had an interesting game this week with usual goal keeper Jaymie Leigh out, they had to recruit Dboy and Kate as stand in goalies.
We went on our way with the tunes blasting and Titch having a sing a long at the back of the bus. We jogged out not having a warm up because we were late getting there and went straight on with team spirit high and ready to give it our all. Within the first few minutes Tyne Met scored their first goal, however, this didn't dishearten us as we came back fighting for the ball. With our top notch cheerleaders on the side keeping the motivation high we pushed the ball up into their half and Amber just missed out on our first goal. The goals cam flying in by the other team of course, but the girls kept playing their own game and fighting on. Kate made some incredible saves and towards the end of the half ice packs were being brought out as she started having knee problems.
Half time came and we were a few goals down having to swap keepers due to ligament injuries. After a pep talk from captain Maddy Wood, the girls went back out with their heads high and Dboy stepping in as keeper. The half went quickly as the girls played a good half. Unfortunately a few more goals were scored, but this didn't stop them. With Helen Murray and Nicole Fenton in the centre sprinting up and down the pitch and making some mean tackles. Maddy wood at centre back kept the defence in line taking on the oppositions attack and taking them out one by one. A well played match ladies and good luck for your next match.
