Sponsor: Purely Mortgages and Life Investments Estate Agents
Squad: Norah, Bella, Olivia, Emma, Gracie, Ellie, Millie, Izzy and Sophie
The U11s were on the road for their final game before the Christmas break with a later kick off hoping it meant the girls were more awake
Rugby started with Norah in goal, Bella and Olivia in defence a midfield three of Emma Ellie and Gracie and Millie leading the line.
The Girls started well and put together some lovely passing movements and began to grow into the game and was very evenly matched with end to end chances for both sides.
The defensive paring of Bella and Olivia were working hard and ensuring Norah was used sparing but when was called upon shown how good she is behind the sticks. The wingers of Emma and Gracie worked up and down with some driving runs from Ellie and Millie in the spine of the side. Izzy was introduced and slotted into midfield.
The second half and Rugby began to dominate. Particularly notable was a wonderful corner from Olivia. Also an outstanding performance from Norah in goal. Sophie came into Midfield and worked hard to continue the threat Rugby possessed. A strong second half performance by Millie put fear into the opposition and was pushing to the final whistle
CPOM: Bella, one of her best performances always consistent but really shown in defence strong interceptions and tackles.
PPOM: Millie, again terrified the opposition defence and exploited the spaces well with her footwork, and worked hard throughout a strong performance.
