BAC 1 Newent2 3

Written by: Katie-Woolly-Pulley-Kersley-Wooller-Curly-Wurley

With Brian on the way, BAC tipped up nice and early to Abbeywood (with the except of the Lisas) and braced themselves for the incoming storm. 

Warm up and team talks duly completed, the focussed preparations seemed to be paying off. BAC exerted early pressure and, after a couple of swift attacks, BAC took the lead. Liz took a free hit near the 25, passed it on to Bish, who slipped the ball through to Tinny in the D. Tinny took a touch and found the back of the net to make it 1-0 to BAC.

This week took us to Swindon for a early start against North Wilts. After a good warm up and Tinny chatting up the young umpire from Malaysia. BAC got off to a great start with great play attacking right and left.

Are you sitting comfortably, then I shall begin.

For the benefit of Bish…….…Once upon a time there was a ladies hockey team called BAC and they played in red.  On a drizzly morning at Abbeywood our opponents this week were Cirencester.

We were feeling confident on the back of our performances from the previous two weeks but we knew it was going to be a tough encounter.

Bristol University2 3 – BAC 4

Written by – Liz Gaze

A lunch time start saw BAC arrive at the Uni pitch hungry but still buzzing from last week’s result. Even Red still had a smile on her face despite her car being rammed by a swiftly reversing netball player whilst supporting BAC2 in the earlier match. Due to weddings, work and holidays the team looked a little different this week and we welcomed WP back from injury and Netty and Bryon for their first foray into North League. The Uni umpire had not turned up so a stand in took charge of the whistle – more on that later!
