To say Slazenger had a 'bad day at the office' was an understatement this week. Following last week's defeat at Hull Slaz were hopeful that they could gain a result, indeed Halifax were going into this game on the back of two defeats. However Halifax had clearly resolved any issues they might have had and the young team came out well planned and fighting fit. Slaz were under pressure from the beginning and defended well to keep the Halifax forwards at bay with joint player of the match Zoe … [Read more...] about Report: 12-10-2013 – Ladies 1st’s (0) vs. (6) Halifax 1st’s

Having said this, the first half was very closely fought with both sides having chances which they failed to take. … [Read more...] about Report: 05-10-2013 – Ladies 1st’s (2) vs. (5) Kingston-upon-Hull 1st’s
