Report: 25-01-2014 – Ladies 2nd’s (2) vs. (0) Pocklington 1st’s

January 25, 2014 by Slazenger HC

With no subs the challenge was on to test the ladies fitness when Pocklington arrived with a 15 strong squad. Pocklington battled well against the still undefeated Slazengers, they had a few chances with short corners but Slazengers defence was solid with Donna Slack saving 2 goals from the line.

Other than that Pocklington never looked like scoring. Slazengers had the majority of the possession and scored 2 goals from open play, one being a deflection, and a goal from a short corner.

Final score 3-0 with goals for Daisy Gee Sanders, Naomi Horsley and the deflection for Sue Hope. Man of the match went to Donna Slack. Yet another good result.

Report: 09-12-2012 – Girls U12’s Tournament

December 19, 2012 by Slazenger HC

GU12 2012-09-30 12.37.53

The 3rd tournament of the season was held last weekend and saw the girls putting in some great performances to finish top of their league.

They were beaten only by Thirsk in a very close match with a final score of 3:2, but in all their other games came out on top.

They will now progress to league D, and hopefully with a higher standard of opposition we will see them up their game even further. Opposition beaten were Pocklington, Driffield, Halifax, Wakefield

Report: 14-10-2012 – Boys U14’s

October 23, 2012 by Slazenger HC

The under 14’s started brightly this season in their first encounter. The squad is a new one but the welcome addition of Dan Levitt and Matt Stacey made all the difference.

The back 4 consisted of Tom Atkinson, Ben Stevenson, Jacob Dennison and young Chris Gascoigne with Danny Alderson in goals. In midfield the team started with Dan Levitt, Alice Gascoigne, Captain Matthew Stacey and Nick Caldersley with Matthew Chilton and Harry Gunning leading the forward line. Hannah Chilton started as substitute.

Airedale           2 – 1      Slazengers (Stacey 23’)

The first game against Airedale saw some settling in nerves as Slaz hadn’t played together as a team and many hadn’t played on a full pitch before. The back 4 coped well wit early pressure and Stacey and Gunning lead a good attacking line up the pitch. Airedale however had their own good players and after a disallowed goal Slaz were caught on the hop a quick attack from two talented Airedale midfielders. Slaz responded with some great triangular paces between Stacey, Levitt and Gunning through the centre and it was Captain Stacey who took his goal well to bring parity. Both teams were playing at their optimum now with goal chances at both ends but it was Airedale who took their chance with Slaz left high up the pitch looking for a goal making up the hole left in midfield and scoring past Danny Alderson.

Slazengers       5 – 0     Pocklington (Levitt 5’, Stacey 7’ 12’, Calderley 22’, A. Gascoigne 25’)

The team performance had been good and switching around Harry Gunning to a more sweeping role whilst pushing forward Dan Levitt made the difference in the second game. Slaz were in charge against Pocklington. Dominating for 90% of the game Dan Levitt and Matt Stacey drove attack after attack onto the Pocklington keeper. Dan scored first with Matthew following with 2 in quick succession. Then the wingers started to show their in fluence with Matt and Stacey supporting Alice and Nick both to score giving Slaz a very healthy 5-0 win.

Bradford           0 – 3     Slazengers (Levitt 3’ 20’, M. Chilton 25’)

Dan Levitt wasn’t going to let Captain Stacey have the share of the goals so against a tougher Bradford side he pounced early to score against a sluggish defence. Bradford responded well but couldn’t get past Jacob Dennison or Chris Gascoinge at the back. A counter attack by Slaz gave Dan another goal and in the dying minutes the whole team combined in a flowing counter attack to push the ball to Hannah playing up front for her to scramble in a final goal.

A cracking start to the year with Matthew Stacey leading the line well as captain, however for her encouragement and vocalisation throughout the match the Coach’s Player of the Tournament was Alice Gascoigne. Well done everyone a superb U14 team performance.

Report: 04-12-2011 – Girls U16’s Dominate Last Games of 2011

December 6, 2011 by Slazenger HC

Slazengers U16 girls had the perfect end to the last tournament of 2011. The weather certainly was the first challenge with the cold temperatures, horizontal rain & hail & a very blustery wind to boot.

Slazenger (3) vs. (0) L.A. Carnegie
The first game was against Leeds Adel Carnegie, the girls stayed focused despite the testing conditions & came away with a well deserved win. First on the score sheet was Nayeesha Tejura, closely followed by Georgia Housten . Leeds made some good breaks which were picked up by our steadfast defensive duo of Evie Johnson & Millie Crowther. Slazengers kept the pressure on the Leeds defence & were able to pick up another goal from a great strike from Katie Browne to make the final score a 3-0 win to Slazengers.

Slazenger (2) vs. (0) Rotherham
The girls were straight on to face a very strong Rotherham, the sides were quite evenly matched with the play being end to end. Again a well positioned Georgia Housten scored a great goal on the back post, Rotherham were quick on the counter attack but were denied by goalkeeper, Chloe Bates. Slazengers kept applying the pressure and earned themselves another goal from Nayeesha Tejura. Final score was a 2-0 win to Slazengers.

Slazenger (5) vs. (0) Selby/Pocklington
The girls had a one match break & then were back on the pitch ready to face their next opponents, Huddersfield Dragons. The girls dominated from the start, made great use of the whole pitch . Sophie Williams distributed the ball perfectly to the mid field duo of Rebecca Jessop & Jess Holland. Their hard work payed off when Georgia Housten found herself on the score sheet yet again, this proved to be the first of a hatrick of goals for player of the tournament Georgia Housten. Also finding the back of the net was Hannah Field & Jess Holland. A 5-0 win was a great result keeping confidence high for the following game against Selby/Pocklington.

A superb defensive display by Selby/Pocklington denied numerous Slazenger attacks, strikes on goal from Daisy Burrows & Elle Spruce all saved off of the line . Despite their best efforts, Selby/Pocklington were unable to deny all efforts & Slazengers scored two great goals, both great strikes from Rebecca Jessop. Final score a 2-0 win.

Slazenger (1) vs. (0) Halifax
Despite the hail & rain, the girls persevered into thei final game against the strong home side of Halifax. Halifax put up stiff opposition but the attacking play from Slazengers was relentless. Daisy Burrows playing outstanding as centre forward,Slazengers had many attacks on goal but again, a ball played around the goal to the in form Georgia Housten saw Slazengers break the deadlock . This proved to be the only goal of the match but another win to Slazengers saw a perfect end to the day. A great all round team display resulted in clean sheets across the board & five well deserved wins.

Report: 06-11-2011 – Boys U12’s Tournament

November 6, 2011 by Slazenger HC

The U12 boys made some good progress at their most recent tournament, gelling as a team, with some stand-out performances. We took a full eleven players includng two ‘keepers, with a couple more outfielders unavailable this weekend, which bodes well. Three of the boys were at their first ever tournament.

Slazenger (0) v (0) Chapeltown B
Slazenger (1) v (2) Pocklington
Slazenger (1) v (2) Sheffield Hallam
Slazenger (1) v (0) Thirsk B
Slazenger (0) v (0) Huddersfield

All the games were close, hard fought affairs. Against Chapeltown, we absorbed early pressure, Daniel making a couple of good saves, but gradually came alive and began to exploit our width and pace down the flanks. Chapeltown were relieved to hear the final whistle, as we were just unable to convert a number of good attacks into the telling strike on goal.

Against Pocklington, we lost discipline and paid for it as Pocklington scored two, neat breakaway goals. Kian performed well in goal, kicking clear on three occasions to clear the lines. Only in the final three minutes did we switch back on, and a neat interplay between Ryan and Chris led to a through-ball to Elliot who one on one, coolly beat the keeper. Slaz had a number of probing attacks, but just couldn’t find the equaliser.

Sheffield were the stand-out team of the day and again we were slow to switch on. Again we lost two goals early and but for some brisk interventions by Daniel it could have been more. Once again, the boys pulled themselves together and in an almost carbon-copy, Elliot scored his second of the day. Slaz proved they were a match for Sheffield in commitment if not yet in skill in the dying minutes and were again unlucky not to equalise.

Against Thirsk, a sluggish start led to Daniel having to dive and smother twice to keep us in the game. Ryan then took charge and began distributing the ball with greater vision to left and right. Linking well with Jacob and Joshua on the left, Chris and Elliot on the right (each of whom showed real commitment and greatly improved positional discipline), chances were created for Tom, Joshua, Matthew and of course Elliot who scored the only goal of the game.

Huddersfield packed the midfield, and although we created the better chances and Kian was untroubled in our goal, we couldn’t find the finish some neat play deserved.

Players of the tournament – Elliot and Daniel, although they all improved markedly. MIP was Joshua, showing real skill on the right wing.
