On Valentine’s Day, a tribute to our one true love…

I can’t feel my fingers

And I can’t feel my toes

It’s freezing at Bourne Deeping

Let’s see how the hockey goes

We started very strongly

We kept the pressure high

Bourne Deeping were nervous

Couldn’t get out of their 25

We gave the ball to Jeffers

She made a blistering run

Reverse shot past the keeper

We were ahead by one!

Bourne Deeping lost a player

A nasty ball to the mouth

We kept our cool and our game plan

The pressure all came from South

“Put names on these passes

It’s the only way we’ll score”

Kimbo shouted for Mossy

But she dived on to the floor

2 great saves by their keeper

We’d get another yet

Flix slipped the ball to Jeffers

Who roofed it into the net

You know we love hockey

We always will

When it’s a promotion play-off

And we’re winning two-nil

We were great at the beginning

But then came the end

On taming the Dragons

We couldn’t depend!

Bourne Deeping scored their first one

We weren’t going down without a fight

The seconds ticked away

Jeffers cleared with all her might

It happened in slow motion

Bourne Deeping’s final attack

Slotting away their second

Loopy left on her back

Loopy wasn’t counting

In fact, she thought we’d lost

She’ll pay attention next week

To avoid the Lemonsie at all costs!

You know we love hockey

We always will

You’ll be dumbfounded

By our silky skills

We’re third in the table

As the season nears the end

On the Ladies 1s, you can depend.
