It has taken a long time – 23 matches in fact – but on the 22nd April the Under 14 Roses experienced their first ever win as a team.
The Girls were newly formed last September with many having never played in teams before. The season started with a 10 nil thumping to emphasise the size of the task against established teams. Very gradually though performances have got stronger as player confidence and pitch awareness improved.
Manager Clive explained ” The girls have really worked hard both individually and as a team over this season. Despite defeats they have to their credit never been dispirited. A great deal of satisfaction comes from seeing individuals getting better and better each week”.
The Roses eventually achieved their first win with a 9 goals to one victory in an impressive performance and have good cause to celebrate.
Congratulations girls.
