National Championships Tier 1 Cup - U16 Girls Cobras v Taunton Vale

31 October 2022 | Phil Robson
National Championships Tier 1 Cup - U16 Girls Cobras v Taunton Vale

A super result for the U16G Cobras in the second round of the Natl Champs T1 Cup. They continue to develop as a team blending the talents of players across 3 year groups and 9 different schools. Joint Players' Player were Caitlin and Rose. With nominations for Alice, Evie, Tilda, Laurel and Jess. And not forgetting Eleanor who made 4 important saves at key points during the game.

On a bouncy and leaf covered pitch, Caitlin led the way with an early goal to settle the nerves. It was just before half time before she was able to add a second. Taunton replied after half time, then Arwen scored her first goal for the team followed by Evie shortly afterwards.

Taunton made a number of counter attacks throughout the game but these were well handled by Rose at CB. Laurel, Annette and Liv handled any wing attacks consistently. The principal screens of Tilda and Alice worked well together. In spite of playing on the back of a hard 3 day camp, Caitlin covered every inch of the pitch. The pace of our forwards, Evie, Maddie, Katie and Jess supported by Ava and Arwen made it difficult for the opposition to handle. We had many more scoring opportunities but managed to miss the goal! Something for the team to work on!
