3rd time lucky for girls' school football team

After two previous postponements, the girls' school football team finally got to start their league season last night. 

 

Solihull Moors at Damson Parkway played host to their first match against Sharman's Cross and what a positive start to the season it was! 

 

Sharman's Cross had led at half time but Greswold's confidence grew in the second half and they dominated the early stages culminating in an unfortunate own goal by the opposition.  Both teams then tried to find a winner without success with the final score remaining 1-1. 

 

Well done to all the girls who represented Greswold so well and we look forward to their next match on 18th January, again at Solihull Moors against Tidbury Green.  

 

A reminder to pupils and parents that football club at Greswold for years' 5 and 6 girls is every Friday at lunchtime.  Anyone can attend and it's free! 

 

Players' report:

Even though it was a tough start, team Greswold pushed on even after the first goal went to Sharman's Cross.  Greswold didn't lose hope though.  At half time, the players thought it through and after a short break, Greswold were ready to get back into the game.  Halfway through the second half, Greswold nearly scored but soon after Sharman's Cross scored an own goal! In the end, it was 1-1.  Not a bad first game for Greswold.
