The U17s secured a well-deserved win against Malmesbury Youth in a fantastic performance, despite being short on players due to the school holidays.

The girls worked hard throughout the game and produced some excellent play in the final third. Eliza set up Esme for the opening goal, before Daisy assisted Esme for her second of the game. Esme then turned provider, setting up Eliza to get on the scoresheet and round off a great team performance.

The girls made hard work of it towards the end but dug deep and showed great determination to see the game out. Although there were areas to improve on, the overall performance was very positive and the result was thoroughly deserved.

Amber, Freya and Eliza were outstanding, bringing fantastic energy and work rate to the team throughout. Hannah also produced a brilliant save towards the end, making an important contribution to securing the win.

Overall, it was a great performance from the whole squad, showing plenty of teamwork, determination and quality, especially with a reduced number of players. The girls had plenty to be proud of after a well-earned victory.
