The match against Solihull was a tough start to the season, ending in a 3-0 lose. The beginning of the season always comes with challenges as the Fifth Form move into senior hockey and the existing players get back into the game. We successfully defended shots on goal, as well as numerous short corners, before attempting to move the ball down the wing to our half. We played well as a team, but often struggled to connect passes and transfer into our half for a shot on goal. Overall, the match was successful in helping us understand what we need to improve for our next game and it was particularly enjoyable to play with a new team.
