Sun 18th April Round 3 Ladies:
U16G div 2 v Kellyville Won 4-1

Great win today by the girls, Sheri 2 goals, Courtney 1 goal and Shayley 1 goal.  Most
impressive was the team performance which is getting better every week.  We just need to get
that killer instinct to finish teams off.  Shayal and Cassie had great games in the
backline, Simone tackled everything that moved, and Susan had her best game of the season.
Well done girls we are now leading the comp but a long way to go, we will take 1 week at a
time and keep trying to improve in little areas and we can look at good times ahead.  Coach.

O35 div 6 v Parramatta City Won 5-1
With 10 men Parra City were always going to struggle on a warm afternoon. Our game was too one-off and not a team game in the 1st half, but we managed 2 first half goals. 2nd half Parra started strong and grabbed a quick goal - game on. Our passing game kicked in and we controlled the ball and the midfield a lot better. 3 more goals put the game away for us. Lovely strike from Rodney into the top corner and some neat finishes from Jack. Parra goalie was superb and kept the score from blowing out. Excellent refereeing.

Senior 3 v Castle Hill United Loss 1-0
Senior 2 v Granville Waratah Loss 8-0

Sun 11th April Round 2 Ladies:
U16G div 2 v Winston Hills Won 2-0

With no subs the girls tired a lot in the 2nd half in warm conditions. 
Our 1st half was great today which set up our win, Courtney and Shayal
had great games.  Renea deserved the 1st goal but did deflect off one of
their players.  Shayley scored the 2nd.  Very good team effort today
girls, still a long way to go in this season but all the positives are
looking great - 2 games, 2 wins, happy coach.

All Age Ladies div 4 v Winston Hills White Draw 2-2
The Ladies looked a little flat early, not passing or controlling the ball real well, and were down 2-0 at the half. Winston only got 2 shots on goal and they both went home. Firstly a break down the right and Megan came out from goals to lessen the angle but the strike was wide of her and into the back left corner. Second goal just before the break took a deflection off our defender. Our girls took confidence knowing that Winston had been lucky and that Holroyd were not playing bad and in fact had 3 well struck shots at goal but all went narrowly wide. Second half we came out firing and soon grabbed our first goal when Sherrie fired one in that bounced awkwardly for their keeper. Ten minutes in scores were all locked up when Vanessa's strike from outside the box thundered into the back of the net. The game went from end to end with both teams getting good chances on goal. Key defensive plays from Di, Niccy K and Lisa in goals kept Winston scoreless in the 2nd half. Lisa was voted as player of the match.

All Age Ladies div 2 v Toongabbie Draw 1-1
