BAC 3 – Lansdown 3 (27/09/14)
Match Report Written by – Becky ‘the bullet’ Lewis
So, here we all are again, the start of another exciting season of hockey:-)
As BAC players arrived at the pitch we were all greeted with feelings of familiarity and nostalgia, eager to get back in the swing of things after the summer break. The air was warm, the sky was bright, and the sun managed to be elusive until after the game, which we were all thankful for!
As always at the start of a game, we ran through the games players, and it was soon very obvious we were missing some of the legendary, renowned, esteemed, acclaimed, illustrious, notorious, greats of BAC ladies hockey club, who decided it was better to climb some sort of ‘great wall’ in China, than be there to support their team mates at the start of the season. But, alas, the game must go on. So, with the remaining first team and some great support from the second team BAC united, old and new, 1st and 2nd, to ensure we had the best start to the new season.
After warming up, and confirming positions, we soon began to realise that we had a very heavy attacking side as there were some major gaps in the defence. But, after running through some short drills, we were confident that we would be able to remain strong at the back, and if not, just try and score more than the other team!
So, here we go then……….
