TRAINING TIME CHANGED

Saturday 26 September 2009
Greenleas 4 Waverton 0
A disappointing scoreline for the girls who started the game very
brightly with two promising attacking moves in the first five minutes.
We had a full squad available with the maximum five subs allowed, which
included some of the Year 10 girls making their debut appearances.
After 10 minutes Greenleas scored a well worked goal to make it 1-0 to
the home side. Two further goals followed to make it 3-0 at half time.
The second half saw a rotation of players allowing everyone to get
involved with many good passing moves which nearly ended up with a goal.
A great 15 yard shot from Emily which looked goalbound all the way hit
the underside of the crossbar only to be cleared off the line by the
Greenleas defence. A goal at this point would have put Waverton right
back in the game. Unfortunately this was followed by another breakaway
move from Greenleas resulting in their fourth and final goal of the
game.
The girls worked hard but the dream of Cup glory has gone for this year
allowing the girls to concentrate on winning the league instead!!
Well done to all the girls for their efforts again and to the parents
for thier support and help with transport.
There is training this Wednesday at Waverton field at 6pm.

Delph pitch KO 12.30pm
The summer holidays are behind us and the serious stuff has begun – yes, it’s the start of the football season again. No, not the Premiership, much more important than that – the Wallasey Junior Football League Ladies division of course.
Following our first training session on Thursday evening with a full squad of 15 girls, our first game of the new season saw us face our closest rivals from last season, Greenleas U16 Ladies. Last season honours were even with a 2-1 win for both teams in two closely contested games.
We welcomed six new players to the squad from last year’s U14s including Zoe taking her place in goal. On arriving at the Delph pitch the girls were told that due to injury and illness we would be down to just the one substitute, which was going to be tough on such a hot and sunny day.
The girls began the game confidently and started to knock the ball around well and five minutes before half time a good ball into the box found Molly unchallenged five yards out. With the coolness of a seasoned professional she put the ball confidently in the back of the net for a well deserved opening goal of the game and the new season. Waverton U16s were back!
Good pressure from Greenleas then forced a corner which was hit low into the box and turned in from close range past Zoe for the equaliser. Then with just seconds remaining of the first half one of the Greenleas midfielders picked up the ball on the half way line and let an unstoppable shot go from 25 yards which flew into the top corner for a 2-1 lead at half time.
Following a well deserved half time break the girls created a number of chances and continued to try to play the passing football they have become known for but were unable to get the goal they deserved. With just a few minutes to go Mel, was thrown up front and managed to cause the Greenleas defence some problems allowing Emily to get in a good low shot on goal which was well saved by the keeper’s outstretched foot .
In the final seconds of the game Greenleas floated the ball over from a corner and the Greenleas’ player of the match Hannah Monks headed in the third goal.
Final score was 3 – 1 to Greenleas.
Player of the match voted by the Greenleas manager was Molly Clarke
At the end of the game the Greenleas coach praised our girls for continuing to play a passing game throughout the game.
Well done to all the squad who will have the chance for revenge when they play Greenleas again in the Cup on 26th September.
Training will be on Thursday 17th this week at the Waverton field at 6pm
Next game is on Saturday 19th September at home against Upton, KO at 11am
