What a weekend! We wrapped up with 6 wins, 2 draws, and 4 tight losses – not too shabby! Here’s the best of the match reports that kept us entertained:
Match Reports Highlights:
• M1s: No report from you this week… Did we scare you off?
• M4s: “Quick injection straight to Ali, top D, who sidesteps the runner and buries it just inside the back post. Nice.” Short and sweet, but shoutout to Captain Danny for treating us to a few more words this week!
• M5s: “I’m going to do this bullet point style because that’s how my brain works.” Same, Will, same.
• Shoutout to Rosie B! Her reports always bring a laugh, with gems like “…establishing we could tell our Nicolas from our Nicoles” and “Vicki practically getting a nosebleed she was so high up the pitch.” Rosie, just write them all, please?
• L4s: Pure chaos. Ostriches spotted in the Fens? El, thinking a player was grass and earning ‘lemon of the week’ for it. “Certified yappers”? Correct.
• L3s: “We lost the toss, but this was no indicator of things to come.” Queens, you know the feeling, and you slayed with a win too!
• L1s: “Our new favorite approach to playing hockey is spending 60 mins faffing around with the ball.” Honestly, if it works, it works. This one had me: “I’d liken the post-match feeling to that of a 5-year-old who’s done a dreadful crayon and jam drawing, but your mum is delighted.” Big Han, you make us laugh every time!
Player of the Week goes to Vicki G, who usually holds down the defense but somehow found herself on the other end of the pitch and scored! And Connor Trimble – no words, all action, congrats on your 3 goals!
To everyone, well done and cheers to another week of matches, madness, and match reports that make some of our days better!
