1st VII v Bishop's Stortford



Result: Won 26-16
On Tuesday 29th January we had a big game against our local rivals Bishop’s Stortford, who we have not beaten for 5 years. Everyone was determined to win, and despite having three of our main players away due to illness, we were still able to put forward a strong team due to Lizzie Cole, Hattie Holmes and Hayley Young stepping up and playing.

There was exceptional defending from Esme Smith and Georgie Stevens keeping the opposition’s goals to a minimum. The link play between Bryony Males and Hattie Holmes excelled throughout the game in the middle and attacking third, which meant great through passes went to Tamara Evans and Hayley Young, allowing for them to score our winning goals. It was a great match and despite the cold and windy conditions we still won 25-16. Player of the match was awarded to Bryony Males.
