Back to our Best

Robyn Rutter

After a disappointing result against Alford & District the weekend before, South were determined to show why we were fourth in the table and a side to be reckoned with.

With a slightly different set up to normal, the girls started out strong with nice stick to stick balls through defence and midfield up to the forwards, who were making good leads trying to get in the heads of the St Ives defenders. Holding the middle of the pitch and making St Ives play in their own half; ball pace; movement; shots on target, meant that the South girls were controlling the game.

Half time it was four-one.

Throughout both halves, South looked the stronger team with nice interlinking play. Goals were coming from open play and short corners! Something to be proud off!

After a hard-fought second half with only one ball finding the back of the net, it finished five-one to South. A fantastic display of good quality hockey which the girls will want to take into next week's game against top of the table CoP.
