U14 Boys
Again due to shortage of players we joined forces with Ben Rhydding and enjoyed an nice Sunday trip to Ben Rhydding to play
During the morning the mixed team played some good hockey and worked very well as a team passing between both Slaz players and ben Rhydding working well, The first opponents were the second team in the league to merge to get a full squad, Northallerton and Thirk. The match was end to end play with some great work from both team with Slaz/Ben Rhydding eventually winning 1-0
Then came the local rivalry match for Slaz playing a strong Wakefield with chances for both teams to get a numbers of goals if it was not for superb goalkeeping but sadly Wakefield managed to get a goal that we could not reply to.
Next can the hardest of the matches, again a mixed team from Chappletown and Rotherham, who thanks to some excellent play by them and some very tired legs from us came out very deserved winners at 5-0. Roll on Jan so we can try and keep improving and show other teams how we can play.
U16 Girls
The u16 girls were at darton college again this weekend in their 3rd tournament of the season. Although playing some great hockey, working well as a team and having numerous chances they were unable to find the back of the net during any of the three games.
Despite looking the stronger team against Northallerton, with most of the play in the Northallerton D, the girls were caught out twice on the break leaving the score 2:0.
Games against Wakefield and halifax were more evenly matched with end to end action. The defence stayed strong, but as said before the goals eluded them and the score line ended 0:0 in both games.
