An epic start to our league adventure this morning as our Bees recorded their first win in their first game. A 100% record!
The boys looked really organised and we held our positions brilliantly. On the attack we looked fast and some of the passing was beyond where Chris and I thought we'd be at this stage.
At the back we looked really solid and we did well to contain the Ellesmere Port no.12 who was big and strong.
We scored 5 great goals, the first two from Ben who got us back in the game at 1-1 at the end of the first quarter. He then put us ahead with a great run and finish.
In the second quarter we introduced our subs who all had an immediate impact. Samuel slammed home another goal to take us to 1-3 and then he scored again, shooting though a crowded area to put us 1-4 ahead!
In the 3rd and 4th quarters we competed really well with some super tackles. Ellesmere Port did put us under a bit more pressure, scoring twice but we were able to regroup and bring Oliver back on to steady the defence.
We always looked dangerous on the break and Ben was able to get free to score another goal for his hat-trick!
The boys did really well and they all said they had fun. We forgot to award the Man of the Match (MOTM) and had four contenders in Ben, Oliver, Henry & Samuel. The award goes to Ben for his hat-trick and all round effort.
Well done to all the boys and thanks to parents for great support.
Rob & Chris
Great first game! Thank you Rob and Chris for getting them "match ready" - looking forward to the next one
