It was a cold wet raining start but that didn’t stop us. Blackheath started off strong by scoring in the first few minutes with a quick goal from Carlotta. Some great picks in defence got us attacking up the right side of the pitch where Carlotta swung a great hit landing in the bottom corner. Sticks flew and sticks swung and Hannah faced the consequence of a green card for the whole team. Even this setback couldn’t hold us back as a short corner went our way and with a great team effort we scored another one. Sevenoaks didn’t give up with some great skills leading to an unfortunate goal. Our heads went down and we let sevenoaks control the game as they scored another one shortly into the second half. After some wise words from Captain Sally, another short corner was scored by Blackheath, winning the game 4-2!
