I went and watched our under 15s Girls team today, in a game which had so many outcomes, if we won we won the League, if we drew or lost we had to go into a three way playoff, or something like that I got confused with all the different scenarios.
A stroke of sheer genius in training yesterday, Ian Powell made the girls play a match against the under 13s, but they had to hold onto the ball for 2 seconds before they could pass it. This was to cut down on those quick passes that go astray.
We played Dowenend Flyers today, and the result was 4-2. We were 1- 0 quickly, then Downend came back to 2-1, then we hit back with some superb goals, one was an absolute screamer from about 25 yards, to make it 4 -2 at half time. In the second half, our girls were immense, Paige S who was player of the match, made some blistering runs with unbelievable ball control, the passing was incredible. The tactic Ian had used in training really paid off, and we had the game under control.
I've seen some good Ladies games, but this was one of the best I have seen for a long time. Once these girls turn 16, they can play in the Ladies teams, the future is bright and it really is yellow.
