Despite having three of our regular players out today and being one team member down, the under 11’s put in an encouraging performance with an increased work rate needed to cope with the high tempo style used by East Fife girls.

Beccy Watt and Evanna Hynd slotted straight back into the team to make up for our missing regulars and both played extremely well. Evanna having given up her usual golf duties to help us out!

The first ten minutes of the game saw a lot of defending from the Strollers girls, but play evened out as the game progressed with both teams showing some good skill and passing.  East Fife played with a lot of pace which required Denver Hopkins and Kerys Blyth to constantly pick up their opposite numbers.

Emma Swanson was played out of her usual position today but coped well; at one point going on a great run from the half way line past three of the opposition’s players.

Brodie Clark and Courtney Porter worked the right side well with some excellent tackling. Goalkeeper, Ynes Kerr, kept the team’s shape with good instruction from her goal.

Overall a great game from two very good teams.
