U12 Girls vs Shinfield

Today was the last game of the season and a rematch against Shinfield. The pitch wasn’t icy this time, but the weather couldn’t have been much worse – cold wind driving snow across the pitch.

Warming up?

The first half saw goals from Emily and Rebecca, but Shinfield managed to get a couple as well. The second half was also quite even, but with a few opportunities just missed by Maidenhead and a frozen goalie having to take time out to warm up, the score ended 4-6 to Shinfield. Emily and Sophia scored the other two for Maidenhead.

Well done for all the girls for turning up and being so keen on a very cold day! Player of the week went to Oonagh for brave play despite a sore knee.

From the coach: “Amazing play, no subs, down to 8 second half and also Oonagh had a busted knee. It was crazy cold.”

Spot the ball…
