The U11s kicked off their new season away against Loughborough Foxes on a warm day. They started with Norah in goal, Olivia and Poppy in defence a midfield three of Ellen, Ellie and Gracie and Millie leading the line. The game began at a high tempo for both sides who were trying to find their rhythm and town held their own in leading from the front line and midfield and if needed was mopped up by the defence and Norah in goal.
A bursting run by town seen a great effort by Ellie, given the heat all 4 subs were in play and a strong run by Olivia shown she can be very versatile. The rotation shown the strength of the side and reach half time The second half again similar to the first was end to end then Millie intercepted a loose goal kick and endeavour with a strong shot. The subs were being rotated and the heat taking its toll the girls played out a good second half with some good efforts from both sides
POM: Norah, shown some strong positional play and smart saves. PPOM: It’s not often the parents struggle to identify one PPOM but they were this week therefore for the hard work is shared between the team.
