U21 Girls Champion of Champions

For some of us the soccer season has ended.
For others it continues, and one of our players from the All Age Ladies 2 team, Sarah Mason, has been playing as part of a composite team representing Granville District in the U21 Girls Champions of Champions Team.
On 10th October the girls played against Marrickville and won their game.

Yesterday on Sunday 17th October the girls played against  Rooty Hill RSL.
Granville scored in the first half and this was scored by Sarah.  Granville had the best of the play and numerous other scoring opportunities but couldn't increase the difference.  Rooty Hill had a few shots but were denied by Granville's keeper who was fearless in her saves and was probably a bit battered and brusied from quite a few collisions with their strikers. Unfortunately in the last two minutes of normal time Rooty Hill scored to equalise.  Two extra ten minute halves were next with more chances by Granville.  In the second ten minutes both the Granville goalie and a Rooty Hill striker were down for the count after a collision in the box.  We had to leave at that stage so hope both girls are all right.  However we received the good news by text that Granville scored in the last 20 seconds of extra time and yet again it was Sarah from our club who scored the clincher.

We are very proud of Sarah and congratulate her and the other girls who make up the U21 girls team who have made a big effort to come together as a quality team within a short time period.  Congratulations also to their Coach Dee Johnson.

A few images video of Sarah in the two matches for you to view below. 

Grand Final match is at Valentine Park next Saturday 23rd October at 11:00am.
