Greenleas game postponed

Apologies for the late calls about the postponement of the Greenleas game, but we only got the news at 9pm on Friday night. Greenleas were unable to field a side and their Secretary had mistakenly thought they were playing Heygarth and so had informed Heygarth earlier in the day that it was off. Heygarth, who were due to play the Greenleas Celtic side, then got a call at 9pm to say their game was back on!

The postponement was not all bad news as we were short of players anyway. Lily and Lucie were unavailable and Emma rang in sick in the morning. Then in the evening, Meg who had been suffering all week called in sick too, leaving us with only 5 players. The league rules say that we have to play the game even if we have 5 players available otherwise we lose the points and the club gets fined.

We are going to Queensferry Sports this week to place the order for the rainjackets for all those girls who have confirmed. If any other girls require them later, that is fine, we will be able to get some more ordered.

Well done to Keira who won the poll for the best goal of the season so far. This was the equalising thunderbolt against Manor Bullets at home early in the season. Second was Lily's great dipping shot against Upton and third was Elia's brave goal against Manor Bullets. Watch out for more polls!

Training is at Christleton Sports Hall on Wednesday 3 December just before 6 to just before 7. See you all there including we hope Meg and Emma.
