Another important match for Newton as they faced Dart in the sunshine on Saturday.

Both teams started strong with the play moving end to end. Newton's midfield worked hard to move the ball up the pitch and create chances for the attack with Frankie Thompson and Aimee Scott coming close to putting Newton ahead. Dart responded with their own chances but Newton’s defence stood strong with Nancy Ellis and Jenna Disbury making key interceptions to keep Dart out. Newton eventually broke the deadlock after Nancy fired a ball into the top of the D with Eleanor Manley managing to get a nick on it to send it into the back of the goal giving Newton a 1-0 lead before half time.

Heading out into the second half Newton looked to maintain their lead, battling hard for every ball. Newton soon broke through once again with player of the match Erin Pettican blasting the ball forward which was picked up by Aimee who coolly slotted the ball into the goal from a tight angle. Dart pushed forward in search of a way back into the game, but Newton remained organised defensively and difficult to break down, leading to a well deserved win.

Yesterday the sun finally came out as Newton hosted Ocean City 1s after a 2 week break and were looking to add more points to the league table.

Newton started well with Frankie Thompson, Sophie Gregory and Harriet Ellis linking up beautifully and moving quickly up the pitch putting early pressure on OC's defence. This pressure paid off as Nikki Hobbs calmly moved around the keeper and slotted the ball over the line. Newton pushed for another goal with Eleanor Manley having her effort tipped away with a fantastic save by OC's keeper. Ocean City had several attempts at goal themselves with Newton's defence having to stay alert, Sara Ellis, Jenna Disbury and joint player of the match Rosie Carpenter making some key saves and holding firm giving Newton a 1-0 lead at half time.

Heading back into game after the break Newton were looking to add another goal to their tally but it was Ocean City who struck first capitalising on a defensive slip from Newton.

Newton gathered themselves and upped their tempo with Mandy Isherwood, Ellen Drew, Nikki and Harriet working hard through the midfield to help Newton's attacks. This hard work paid off with joint player of the match Nancy Ellis firing home to restore Newton's lead. The game remained tight until the final whistle, with both teams having chances, however, it was Newton who came away with a deserved win adding another 3 points to their tally.

Well done to Player of the Match Harriet!

Last Saturday Newton travelled down to Cornwall to face Caradon. This was an important match for Newton and they were looking to come away with some points on the board.

Newton started quickly, catching Caradon off guard and earned themselves a short corner in the opening two minutes, this was converted by Nancy Ellis giving Newton an early lead! Caradon pushed back against this moving the ball well and putting Newton under pressure but couldn't get past Jenna Disbury, Sophie Gregory and Sara Ellis in defence. The game became end to end with both teams having chances but it was Newton who broke through with Nancy scoring from another short corner! Caradon were able to get one back before half time sending Newton into the break 2-1 up.

Heading out into the second half Newton were hoping to extend their lead but Caradon were pushing hard looking for an equaliser, the game was end to end with player of the match Harriet Ellis, Nikki Hobbs and Mandy Isherwood fighting in the midfield to help Newton maintain control, with the game remaining 2-1 to Newton despite some great efforts by both teams. The game took a turn with 14 minutes remaining as one of Newton's players sustained a serious injury and the game was paused. Newton gathered themselves to continue and were now playing for their teammate and wanting to retain their lead for her. However, the drama did not end there - with 3 minutes remaining Caradon were awarded a penalty flick! Newton didn't need to worry though as Rosie Carpenter once again became a wall for Newton and kept Caradon out. Newton were now battling for everything trying to maintain their slim lead, however, heart break for Newton as in the dying seconds of the game Caradon equalised to end the game 2-2.

Newton hosted Devonport 1s on Saturday and after a tough few weeks Newton were fired up and looking to secure a win.

Newton started strong pushing forward and putting pressure on Devonport’s defence almost immediately with Aimee Scott, Eleanor Manley and Mandy Isherwood linking up well to create some early chances for Newton which were blocked well by Devonport’s keeper.

Newton managed a sustained period of pressure from Devonport’s attack brilliantly, defending a number of short corners - letting nothing get past them. 👊

Newton responded with another attack building through the team with lovely link up play between player of the match Harriet Ellis, Frankie Thompson and Sophie Gregory culminating in Aimee slotting the ball into the bottom right hand corner sending Newton into half time 1-0 up!

Coming out into the second half Newton wanted to maintain their performance and continue to create problems for Devonport. Newton started brightly once again pushing up and testing Devonport’s defence with Nikki Hobbs, Nancy Ellis and Mandy sending in some teasing balls.

Devonport were determined to find an equaliser and were pushing hard to try and break through but Newton were holding strong with the front line, midfield and defence all working hard to keep them out and break down their play - this resulted in a well earned three points for Newton with the game being ending 1-0! 🎉
