Report: 24-09-2016 – Mens 2nd’s (2) vs. (6) Harrogate Mens 3

September 24, 2016 by Slazenger HC

2016-09-24-m2-simon-randall

Slazengers mens 2nd team started their league campaign against a Harrogate side that went unbeaten throughout the entire of last season and although they were good in patches, eventually went down 6-2.

Slazengers were dealing with a much changed side from the previous season and were also playing a new formation which allowed Harrogate, a team that has played together for a number of seasons, to take advantage of individual errors and a bit of confusion over the new formation. Slazengers struggled in the first half primarily with players getting dragged out of position which allowed Harrogate to take a 4-1 lead at the break. Slazengers goal came courtesy of a sharp finish from Asad Baig.

Slazengers were better in the second half and were only undone on 2 occasions, both times following some excellent play down the flanks by Harrogate. Slazengers goal came through Harry Gunning who enjoyed a good debut for the team as did Amir Khalil in the centre of midfield. Despite being on the wrong end of the 6-2 scoreline, there are a number of positives which Slazengers can take from the game and apply in the coming weeks.

Report: 24-09-2016 – Mens 4th’s (4) vs. (3) Brigg 4th’s

September 24, 2016 by Slazenger HC

In the opening game of the season Slazenger 4th’s travelled away to Brigg in what was to be a thrilling end to end openly played game.

Brigg had taken a 2 goal lead in the first half. However with the last minute of play before half time, a high ball across the d was plucked from the air and deposited into the back of the Brigg net by captain Steve Johnson.

The second half was set for the 4 young debutant 4th team players to make their mark: Dan Cass; James Armitage, Davey Ramsdale and Harry Buttery. They didn’t disappoint in what was to be a second half demolition job by Slazenger 4.

Final score 4-3; with a further brace from Captain Johnson to Slazenger 4th team.

Report: 24-09-2016 – Ladies 2nd’s (2) vs. (0) Halifax 2nd’s

September 24, 2016 by Slazenger HC

So the season started with a fresh looking team; moving up into a higher league and ready for the challenge of playing an established team.

Slazengers were on the attack straight away having a lot of the attacking possession. New girl to the club Tuscany Mellor scored the first goal for Slazengers giving them the lead they deserved and before half time Claire Dunstan put another away.

After half time there were a few saves from Halifax the most notable being Claire Dunstans narrow miss with the post! The game finished 2-0 to Slazengers after a great effort from everyone. A clean sheet for Lisa Chappell on her return and Man of the match for Mollie Gilbert who had a strong game in defence.

Well done ladies.

2016-09-24-l1-jessica-rudge

Slazengers got off to a struggling start with visitors Halifax putting the pressure on early with significant attempts on goal. However, the girls in green remained strong defensively with consistent impressive saves in the air from their GK; Tracey Lorriman. After a tough opening phase, Slazengers took the lead with a goal from Jessica Rudge.

After a change in formation into the the second half, Slazengers stepped up their pace and were challenging Halifax even more than they anticipated and dominated the game.

Halifax then levelled the score line at 1-1 which did not dishearten the team but caused them to dig deep for another. Shortly followed a goal from Frankie Tyrell who gave Slazengers the advantage they needed with a 2-1 lead.

As tensions rose Halifax had a player suspended from the pitch and Slazengers were able to maintain their lead. However, in the closing minutes, Halifax managed to score another goal which lead to a 2-2 draw.

Overall an impressive game with great team spirit.

Report: 19-12-2015 – Mens 2nd’s (2) vs. (5) Tadcaster Magnets 1st’s

December 19, 2015 by Slazenger HC

Slazengers Mens 2nd team found themselves travelling to Tadcaster on Saturday for a 10.30am push and with a number of players suffering from Christmas parties the previous evening, found themselves 4-0 down at half time. The scoreline didn’t fully reflect the game as Slazengers created a number of chances and had an open goal gone in when the score was 2-0, things could have been a lot closer.

After some harsh words at half time, Slazengers put in a much better 2nd half performance winning the half 2-1 but ending up 5-2 losers overall. Goals came from Matt Green and Simon Chamberlain. After a number of player losses at the start of the season, Slazengers will be happy to find themselves in mid table.

Matt Chilton has been excellent following his debut with the 2nd’s and the team will be looking to consolidate their position going into the 2nd half of the season.

Report: 19-12-2015 – Mens 4th’s (5) vs. (2) Chapeltown 4th’s

December 19, 2015 by Slazenger HC

Slazengers 4s finished their 2015 with a home game against Chapeltown who have provided a few tasty clashes over the years so it was not a game to be missed.

Slaz started brightly with many attacking opportunities created through Steve Johnson and eventually they scored with a short corner from Harry Gunning. However Slaz went into the break undeservedly behind as Chapeltown scored two against the run of play. After half-time the home team went straight into the 2nd half with intent to score.

The midfield of Sam Haigh, Dan Tiffany and Andy Fisher were dominating the play and created bags of chances for Josh Dunstan and Chris Gascgoine upfront. This was reflected in the final scoreline as Slaz ran riot with 4 goals in the second half to come out winners in the final match of the year. Man of the match went to Harry Gunning for contributing 2 goals.

Slaz start again in 2016 on 16th December against Brigg at home.

On Sunday Slazengers took on the promising Sheffield University bankers team in a home league fixture.

Bankers started strongly getting the first goal of the game from a short corner. This was a wake up call for Slazengers who began to show their attacking intent with a number of breaks up the right flank by joint player of the match Amy Brereton. She was rewarded with a fantastic solo goal after she completely out paced the university defenders.

The Slazengers defensive unit stood firm and joint player of the match Sarah Ritchey made some well timed and essential tackles.

The score line of 1 all was taken into the half time break.

Slazengers came out fighting and managed to go a goal ahead after Louise Beever netted the ball during a scramble in the D.

Slazengers held their lead for the last 20 minutes resulting in an impressive 2 – 1 victory.

6 points from the weekend saw Slazengers 3’s climb up to mid table before their Christmas break.

Report: 12-12-2015 – Ladies 3rd’s (2) vs. (0) Huddersfield Kirklees 1st’s

December 12, 2015 by Slazenger HC

On a rainy cold Saturday morning Slazengers made the short journey to take on Huddersfield ladies.

Slazengers first goal came from a free hit just inside the 25, this was taken quickly down the right and crossed to the stick of player of the match Lucy Howard who placed the ball neatly into the back of the goal to take Slazengers into the lead.

Slazengers continued to press and were duly rewarded when a free flowing passing move saw this time the scorer Caro Schofield hammering the ball past the goal keeper.

Slazengers continued to dominate and would have no doubt made it more if the Huddersfield team hadn’t called a stop to the match due to the torturous conditions.

The score of 2 – 0 stood.
