Katie's Ballad

Katie Gibson

Over the hills and far away, the Ladies Twos were set to play. A treacherous journey for some lay ahead, it was the stuff of legend, or so it is said. The lemon endured buses, taxis and marathons to meet; alas, the team were away, St Ives they did seek.

The sun shone down and the battle began. "For glory!" Louisa cried, and off they ran. The game was ferocious, with attack from both sides, but Annie scored early, a blow for St Ives. With Emma-Rose, Izzy and Eimear as wingers, South looked dangerous, and their praise we must sing(-ers…). Earning MoM, Mel had a knockout game, dribbling left, right and centre, we all tried the same. Coordinated teamwork amongst our back lines, meant back and around switched the ball between sides (I'm pretty sure that one doesn't rhyme).

A hard press from opposition, meant the score became level. Fear not! for Alice fired into the goal, and the team they did revel. The rest of game was much the same, and superstar manager Serin deserves the name. Facing strong opposition from the ladies in green, who really put forward an impressive team. Fatigue setting in with not long to go: a short corner, from where I don't know. St Ives defence in the goal and ready to pounce, a clever slip from Emma-Rose out right was worth every ounce. One last goal by Katie secured and the cheerful, yet tired, purples endured.

Realising poor grammar and lack of ability to rhyme, I've decided to make, the next my last line.

In conclusion, we won three-one, tough match, lots of impressive teamwork and ready to start the season happily ever after.
