The game v Delta Colts will kick off at 12:30 this Saturday. All players are to meet at Oxton Park at 12 noon. Lifts are available, please ask Heather or Mike.

Oxton Park is not in Oxton at all, but in Liscard. The field is on Poulton Road opposite the Rose and Crown pub. The field is small and there is a play area at the back where younger children or substitutes can play on the equipment (bet Keira is the first to give it a go).

Take M53 to end but don't follow the tunnel signs, instead take ramp left on to A5088 signposted 'All Docks'. Follow this road to a roundabout. Turn left onto Poulton Bridge Road and then a little further turn right onto Poulton Road. The road goes over the top of the Wallasey Tunnel road and then a little further on just past the junction with Oxton Road, you'll see the Rose and Crown on your right. Park on the road and the field is opposite the pub. If you have a sat navvy thing the postcode of the pub is CH44 4DE.

AFC Waverton 2 - Irby Colts 4

Waverton's first game in the new league ended in a defeat at home to Irby Colts, but the performance was much closer than the scoreline suggests and the girls can be pleased with first outing. Only 3 girls from the league side last year were in the starting line up, which makes the display even more impressive and one on which the team will build.

After 5 minutes Waverton took the lead when captain Keira Berry scored after picking up a ball on the right and beat the 'keeper. The Wirral side got back into it when pressure on the home defence resulted in an own goal. Soon after Emma Harrison nearly put the home side ahead again, but then Ellie Fowler for Irby Colts scored twice to give the visitors a clear advantage. Just before half time though, Keira Berry grabbed a second goal latching on to a lovely through ball from debut player Elia Williams-Serrano.

In the second half Waverton had numerous chances to equalise with Keira Berry and Ellie Riste going close. The football played was excellent with some great passing moves between Keira Berry and Lily Worden. However Irby, who were generally well marshalled by Megan McKee and Lucy Parkinson at the back scored a fourth through a long range shot which Holly Carter in the home goal was powerless to stop.

MOM chosen by Irby Colts - Keira Berry

Training - Wednesday 1 October at Christleton Primary 5:30-6:30.
Next match - Saturday 4 October - venue and opposition to be confirmed.

The team will be:

Irby game postponed/Training instead

The league has tonight called off all midweek fixtures meaning that the home game scheduled for Tuesday 16 September against Irby has been called off. The reason is that the League feel that the light is now not good enough to play the games safely.

There are numerous games on the field that day and it is important that we arrive on time ready for kick off. We hope to arrange lifts from Christleton/Waverton for those that need them. Please let Mike or Heather know if you require a lift.
