Two players scored hat-tricks as Slazengers Ladies 3rds overwhelmed bottom side Huddersfield Dragons 3rds 11-0 in Division Five of the Yorkshire League.Gemma Whittam and Claire Dunstan were the treble stars as mid-table Slazengers left their young and inexperienced hosts still searching for a first win of the season.
Huddersfield fell behind inside two minutes when Linda Stacey netted with a solo effort – and it was 4-0 by the interval as Justine Birkett capitalised on a cross from Dunstan, who added the fourth goal after strike partner Whittam had put the visitors three up.Whittam poached two more goals at the start of the second half to complete her hat-trick, with Stacey then doubling up from a fine strike to make it 7-0.
Donna Wood added her first goal of the season from a short corner, Stacey passed for Birkett to add her second and Dunstan completed the tally with the final two goals to join Whittam on three for the game.
The man of the match honour went to young midfielder Hannah Chilton, who has just been promoted from the fourth team, after her attacks down the right-hand side set up a series of chances.
