U19 Girls Hockey - Simba

On Saturday the under 19 girls team went to play hockey at Simba. We played four games in total, the first being against Lechwe. We really were not prepared for this game and they scored within the first few minutes of the game starting. During the second half of the game they scored again ending that game 2-0 for them. We had no communication and we were trying to attack down the middle of the field.

  The second game was against Simba and unfortunately this game ended 3-0 for them because of, again, lack of communication and good passing. After the game we rearranged the players, so we did a little better against Chengelo, although that game still ended 2-0 for them. 

Thoko stopped many attempts as goalkeeper

The last game was against Trident. During the first half we had quite a number of chances to shoot and finally Rosemary put one into the goal. During the second half though, we let in two goals ending that game 2-1 to Trident.

I want to thank the team for working hard especially in the last two games, also Rosemary for scoring the only goal that day and Thoko for saving so many shots on goal. I also want to thank Mr Grove for driving us and coaching us for the last game and Diana for cheering us on! I also want to thank God for a good and fun day.
