TEAM: Womens 5th XI 
DATE: 21/09/2024 
FIXTURE: Womens 5th XI VS 21/09/2024 
HEADLINE: First of many? 
LEAGUE: EAST DIVISION 3 NORTH EAST (NORTH) 
VENUE: Sheringham 
RESULT: W 3-2 
 
REPORT: 
We turned up to Sheringham with a brand new team following lots of movement this year. We knew the pitch was slow and the opposition were big hitters, so the aim was to move it around quickly with easy passes and to intercept the long balls.  
 
We started with good possession, moving it well and progressing up the pitch.  
 
We were the first to break and in 11 minutes we had the first goal. We began believing in ourselves. We settled in as a team and goal 2 followed. We would have been happy at that but we slotted in a 3rd and went in to half time like heroes.  
 
The opposition had gotten wise to us though, they chose to attack and you can't blame them. The ball went high in our D, the opposition got a weird touch on it and it arched over the keepers head and dropped in our goal.  
 
We still had it in hand though. Heads up, we got back to it. North Norfolk found the goal again!  
 
The score was too close for comfort. We played defensively, we soldiered through a terrifying 25 minutes and we held them off to the final whistle.  
 
Win 1 for the season... can we make it a streak?
