A great last friendly before the league starts next week. We definitely needed that friendly though. We started off a little rusty, with everyone's stick skills a little clumsy.

The first third (we played 3 x 20 mins to allow plenty of talking between play) was getting to remember the rules and how to dribble/hit a ball but we were looking good and playing well as a team.

Soon after the start of the second third our newbie Hannah managed to get the ball in the goal with a brilliant push from the right post.

Soon after a team effort allowed Dani to get another (we won't mention it also bounced off an opponent's stick on its way in).

With plenty of support from the L1s for the final third, we played some really good hockey although our fitness probably let us down slightly...we could certainly tell we need those Thursday fitness sessions after a summer of over-indulgence.

Overall a great win for the L2s...Bring on the rest of the season and the pre-season bbq tonight.

Tea score...1/10
