On a glorious
sunny Saturday morning the pitch and the weather were perfect to
hold Westbury under 9’s first league game of the season. After a
few late arrivals by some of the players Tony Rouse , assistant
manager, got the players together for a pre match warm up and team
talk, as usual a few listening and a few day dreaming!
Ben Brogan (ref)
got the game under way and L & B Badgers started the game the best
knocking the ball about well. Following this good start they went 1
up with a good finish by their striker. Westbury seemed to be day
dreaming and enjoying the sunshine more than the football but after
a few encouraging words from Rod Smith and Tony Rouse and all our
supporters in the crowd Westbury seemed to pull together and scored
their first goal. This seemed to pick all the players up and their
concentration finally kicked in. From them on L & B Badgers found
it more and more difficult to get themselves into the game and wave
after wave of good passing and attacking football from Westbury
brought more goals!
Starting off the
second half Westbury were straight out off the blocks and continued
how they finished the first half with flair and confidence creating
chances and taking them with great professionalism .
This was a great
all round performance by all the players and every single player
deserves a pat on the back from their supporters.
Thanks for all
the support.
