Ladies 4s take 7 goals at home to stay top of the league

Saturday saw a top of the table clash between Broxbourne and Blueharts. Both teams were eager for the win as it could change the positions at the top.

After last week’s challenging match against Berko and Hemel, Broxbourne were ready to learn from their errors and battle from the off. In addition to the pressure of the opposition, it was a huge juggle this week with weddings, school fixtures and exams, but in true 4s fashion, the team pulled together to end the game with 11 (just…Thank you Amelia!!)

Unlike other matches, Broxbourne took the lead rather than conceding and staging a comeback as the game progressed. This goal was a boost for Broxbourne, who built upon this to finish the first half 3-1.

The team were very appreciative for the support from some of the Ladies 3xi and club captain Ems, who popped down to see some of the action.

The second half saw Broxbourne pick up pace and before she had to dash, Laura managed to put a few more in the goal and bring her total to a hat trick +1.

The defence held off some fantastic Blueharts breaks and were at times lucky to avoid conceding. Despite these attacks, Broxbourne responded and proved their strength with some fantastic pressing and beautiful teamwork.

Despite a few tense moments, it was a great game from both teams. Calm heads were needed to withstand the Blueharts pressure and it was fantastic to see our younger players step up to the challenge and our more experienced players to guide the game for the win.

Goals this week came from Laura (4), Brawny (2) and Frankie (1).

A massive well done to all the team, it was a hard fought win!

Badger this week goes to Laura
Donkey for Brawny ( although closely contested by Sue T and Tors for giving the oppo sour milk after Tors couldn’t smell post Covid)

Last match next week vs Harpenden.
