Greenisland Ladies 2nd XI 8
Ballymena Ladies 2nd XI 0
Sat 19th September 2009
Greenisland Ladies Hockey Club 2nd XI squad took to the pitch on Saturday
in their first fixture of the season. Newly promoted, the Club’s 2nd
XI was expecting a tough match against Ballymena LHC 2nd XI but this proved
not to be the case.
The home team started the strongest with a dominant midfield of Audrey MacCorquodale,
Eileen Reynolds and Genevieve Cathcart linking well with forwards Norma Montgomery,
Tara Connor and Lindsay Anderson. Enjoying most of the game’s possession
Greenisland converted the first of many goals through Tara Connor and at half-time
the Greenisland girls were four goals to nil.
Coach Karen Elwood’s half-time team talk was very positive and she
told the team that she wanted as good a performance in the second half as
in the first. Greenisland started the second half with defence, midfield and
forwards all playing very well. This resulted in another four goals –
one each from Norma Montgomery, Carla Brown, Eileen Reynolds and Tara Connor.
Final score 8-0 to Greenisland.
Many thanks to Alyson Douglas for umpiring.
