Wednesday 19th October – HLNC G and H Match Report

It was a top of the table clash this week for Hinckley Ladies G team as they took on Highway at the Xcel Centre in Coventry.  Captain Katie Foster playing her last match for Hinckley, lead from the front and was inspirational at GD taking a batch of interceptions and turning play around to send the ball back into attack. Hinckley hung on to slender lead in what was a very evenly matched contest. However in the last quarter Hinckley put in a surge which proved decisive as they  took a 26 – 15 win which sees them move into top spot in the league. Player of the match was shared between Helen Vause and Anna Ball.

Hinckley H were full of confidence from their win last week as they met Queens Diamonds Rugby. However, both teams made a lot of unforced errors and at times the ball struggled to get to either attacking end. Hinckley saw the lead they had gained whittled down and it was anyone’s match in the last quarter as the teams matched each other goal for goal. Luck however was on Hinckleys side as time was blown at 16 – 15 in their favour. Player of the Match went to Sam Davis at Goal Shooter.
