U/12G Bye

U/14G v Rouse Hill Win 6-0
Match report: Great 1st win.

Started to pass the ball around and run Rouse Hill around the park. Good use of the whole park and good game by Rochelle (5 goals), Renea and Natasha in the midfield. Also Linda and Shayley at the back. Keep up the teamwork and we will have some more victories. Coach: Peter Pike, Manager: Tracey Hopper

U/16G v Lidcombe Win 6-2
Match report: On an extremely hot and sunny Autumn morning the 2007, they line up to do battle with the nemesis from last year’s grand final. The girls came out pumped up to revenge their last encounter. It was wasn’t long until Sarah made a fantastic run down the right side, drew the keeper off her line, and selflessly passed to our youngest member, Lauren S, for a well executed goal.
The girls are really coming together and playing as a team. This was evident from a number of passing sequences the Matilda’s would have been proud of. Several of these passages of plays from within our half, lead to Sandy, Pia, Miray and Lauren S combining together to send well weighted balls through to Sarah to hopelessly out sprint the opposition defence and leave their goalkeeper clutching at air as the ball went into the back of the net. An unlucky penalty and a goal mouth scramble let the opposition in for 2 goal goals before half time. Half time 4 – 2.
The second half was a much tougher affair. The opposition were playing for their pride and made a number of raids on the Holroyd goal. Strong defending from Kim, Jade, Lauren J and Monique as well as inspirational keeping from Kristen flaunted a number of dangerous attacking raids. Sarah finished off 2 more goals. Final score 6 -2. Overall, one of the best games the girls have put together and with continued consistency, they should do well in the competition. The “Woman” of the Match” award was hotly contested with Kristen, Miray, Sandy, Pia, Kim, Lauren S, Samantha and Vivien all polling votes. However with her 2^nd 5 goal bag for the season Sarah was a deserving winner. Coach: Don Jordan.

AAL/4 Wht v Granville Kewpies Win 1-0
Match report:The girls had a lot of confidence going into the match after last weeks great win. But were not looking forward to running around in the heat. The ladies had a good first half with a goal by Bec off her left foot. The second half was not so good with lack of fitness as well as the heat leading to scrappy playing by all.
AAL/4 Blk v North Rocks Loss 3-2
