LATEST NEWS

Unbeaten Weekend for the Men

In a season of success, this weekend is certainly up there including a full set of wins for all the Men's teams on Saturday. After last weeks blip, the Men's 1s resumed to normal service by beating Stevenage 5-1. Pete Allam scored all five goals!

The Ladies 1s had a ding dong battle against promotion challengers Cheshunt. We won 2-0 with goals from Anneke Laux Gainer and Stef Abson. It's also worth adding that Kelly Loan saved a penalty flick when the game was 0-0. It's on these key moments that entire seasons are decided.
A fantastic result against a strong Cheshunt team!

Fantastic 2-0 win for the Men's 2s against Broxbourne. Goals for Tom Moorhouse and Kyle Purkiss. Great team performance, resulting in our 5th win in a row, and depending on one other result could put us 3rd in the table.

Men's 3s scored a significant win in their bid to avoid relegation. They were playing Letchworth who are also at the bottom of the league. It's going to be interesting to see if Ed Goodwyns team can mount the great escape.

The Men's 4s mounted a fantastic come back after conceeding 3 in the first half against Bedford Vets. They went on to win the game 4-3 win. Particular congratulations to Freddie Ormerod for his Man of the Match performance.

Men's 5's had a fantastic victory against St Albans 6-2. Fantastic debut performances by Alex, Tim, Oscar and Jackson. End score was 6-2 with new boy Alex scoring a hat trick (I hope he bought the beers back at the club house).

The Ladies 4s won 1-0 away against Sheffield & Sandy. A great deflected goal from Hannah Knight - it proves just how worthwhile the deflection training session on Monday was.

The Ladies 3's drew 2-2 with West Herts 5's. We were 2-0 up after brilliant goals from Sophie Lawrance and Charlotte Holland, but a strong West Herts side came back fighting second half. Brilliant work from everyone. Player of the match went to Charlotte.

Just the one defeat across the club. The Ladies 2s lost a very close game against Hertford 1-0. It was a great performance but we just couldn't get the all important goal.

On Sunday the Men's 1s played a rescheduled game against Bedford. The game was drawn 2-2. The match report will be posted on the website later this week.

THE INTERCLUB LEAGUE TABLE
A quick review of the combined club league table shows it is tight for 1st place but also very competitive for 3rd place as well - there are 5 teams battling it out for a podium finish...

MEN's

Pete 'if i score more than 3 that means i don't have to by a Jug' Allam scored 5 this Saturday to claim 31 points. This season has been an extraordinary goal scoring splurge. Fantastic effort.
