Sponsor: Purely Mortgages and Life Investments Estate Agent
Squad: Norah, Poppy, Emma, Gracie, Ellie, Olivia, Sophie, Izzy, Bella and Millie
The pitch scheduled for the game was water logged but thanks to our hosts they managed to rearrange and source a 3G Pitch so thank you for sorting it and keeping the game on. Rugby started with Norah in goal, Poppy and Olivia in defence a midfield three of Ellie, Bella and Izzy with Millie leading the line.
The sides had met before and was a tight match and opening exchanges were similar, Norah with a good performance and covering by Olivia and Poppy. Bella moved into midfield for this match and looked a natural offering great covering and drives and passes complimented by Izzy and Ellie on flanks, Millie as always was making the opposition work hard. A flurry of changes saw the introduction of Gracie, Sophie and Emma who continued the drive and saw Rugby end the half well.
The second half was a bit scrappy and a few changes to rotate and wasn’t long before good runs by Ellie and another strong free kick by Olivia helped Rugby see the match out well.
CPOM: Bella, has looked so good in defence a change in position today but did not look out of place and grew into the game.
PPOM: Millie, did some amazing runs and put balls into the mixer and kept Borough defence run ragged a sterling effort leading the line.
