On a back to back weekend, Slazenger played some of the finest hockey this season, with the same eleven on duty for both days. Slaz’ set out against top of the league Norton with a new found strength displayed by all the players working as a team for 70 minutes, with Mike Shaw scoring the only goal of the match from a sweet strike in the first half.
Play was strong from both sides, but it was Slazenger’s that came through due to the relentless hard work from every player.
Man of the match went to Richard Hutchins for his solo work up front, although unable to defeat the keeper, he made mincemeat of the Norton defence and so always keeping them on the back foot inside their 25.
