A great first match to start the season for the U15C team. The girls were excited to have their first match of the season. Stowe started strong and were displaying solid hockey skills to start the match. It is safe to say, the team came out of the blocks with real determination and energy.
The midfield worked particularly hard in the first half of the match to put pressure on Bradfield. The team worked well in Bradfield's 25 to give Stowe opportunity to score. However, Bradfield defence were responsive to Stowe's attack and were able to keep Stowe at bay.
In the second half, Stowe were determined to score after putting significant pressure on Bradfield in the first half. Within minutes, a fantastic goal from Camilla A into the bottom left of the goal. With the excitement of the goal under our belts, the team were ready to continue the pressure on Bradfield. A short time later, Camilla A scored again! An excellent 5 minutes for Stowe who were now 2-0 up.
On the counterattack, Bradfield were awarded a short corner. The pressure was on! A lovely touch on the ball from Bradfield to the top left, and the ball flew in.
The final score was 2-1 to Stowe. An excellent, well contested match to start the season. Well done girls!
