LGFA U14 We welcomed John Mitchells to Lewis Road on Monday evening for a top of the table clash in our County League Division, looking maintain our 100% record. Despite conceding a goal after 10 seconds, the girls settled into the game and soon we were moving the ball and kicking some great points. We went in up the bare minimum at half time and were facing a strong breeze in the second half. We need not have worried as the girls played brilliantly against the wind and we ran out convincing winners on a scoreline of 0:09 to 1:02. This was a great team display, with all 18 players contributing to a fine win. We have finished on top of the table and go into a Semi Final full of confidence.
