GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE MATCH
Stourport ladies 1st XI clinched their first win of the season, last
weekend, when they beat their visitors, Leighton Buzzard, in this
Midland B match 4-1.
Stourport began the match coming out hard at their opposition and
reaped the rewards with a goal by Erin Preece in the opening five
minutes. The home side wasn't ahead for long though, when the visitors
capitalized on a weak pass by the Stourport defence, which found
Leighton Buzzard's centre forward. Stourport's game was slow and
scrappy throughout the first half, and weak passing prevented them from
moving the ball around the pitch well. However it was the home side
that had the lead at the break, Liz Cooke taking advantage of some bad
defending by the visitors defence to slam the ball into the back of the
goal.
A harsh team talk from the coach at half time had the desired effect
as Stourport stepped up their game. This proved to be frustrating for
the visitors, which boiled over when their captain received a green
card. Preece, who ran rings around the visitors defence, added a
second when a powerful pass from Stourport Fran Moss, found her which
she converted skillful.
Leighton still pushed forward but Stourport's player of the match
Kerry Maughan fraught off the visitor's efforts, with her quick
dribbling skills. Stourport's movement around the Leighton 'D' led to
another goal for the home side with the ball being passed to Rene
Johnson who dribbled the ball into the midst of the visitors defence
and hammered the ball into the goal. Leighton could do little to get
past a strong Stourport side, which stood firm until the final
whistle.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE MATCH
Stourport ladies 3rd XI, made it two wins out of two, in the
Worcestershire 2nd Division when they took the points against their
visitors Old Halesonians, beating them 2-0 last weekend.
Stourport had the majority of the play, but found their attack
breaking down in the face of an experienced Old Hales defence, and the
home side could've been forgiven for breathing a collective sigh of
relief, as Georgi Hingley managed to score after twenty five minutes.
Still, they may have had a lot of defending to do but Old Hales, could
still have leveled the scores before the break and were unlucky not to
have been level at the half way point.
Stourport began the second half in the same manor, and after fifteen
minutes Kate Bailey found a gap between the keeper and the post,
following a short corner, for the home sides second. The goal was the
killer punch as far as Old Hales were concerned, who weren't able to
get back into the match. Stourport on the other hand kept up the
pressure but were unable to increase their before the final whistle.

Ends.
