Traversal of the Infinite!
There must be some law of infinity stating that hockey pitches continually expand with each player that isn’t available to play. At five minutes in, the pitch visibly stretching away toward the Thames, a strange noise could be heard from the ether. Was it the enormous, globe-trotting freighter gliding by or the sound of BEs laboured breathing? Huge gaps between BEs and their opponents, made it very difficult to track them with any modicum of grace and elegance. Gravesend meanwhile made many, many sorties into BEs comfortably populated goal area, shots on goal coolly rebuffed by Caitlin and her amazing defenders mind you. BEs soon got the hang of trying to appear faster and infinitely more than their parts by demonstrating shedloads of focus, fitness, accuracy in execution and team support. Everyone ran rings and challenged aplenty so that Ita and a hami-restricted Lula, could catch up with Gravesend’s ever receding goal and score two well-earned beauties.
Player of the Match went to the team for being doggedly amazing.
Final Score Blackheath 2-1.
