Match Report ~ BAC2 1 – Clifton4 2
This match is best described as drizzly. It rained from the skies and most of the first half play was wet and gloomy. This reporter can’t comment on the pre-match activities as I turned up a minute before the whistle, but generally the team looked good to go……until you did a head count.

A brisk morning in Westbury and the BAC second team assembled good and early, our opponents were nowhere to be seen. There was an early team buzz from news of a BAC 1st team win which was heightened by the arrival of Sophie the second team captain and cheerleader on crutches!
