Essex Cup

On Tuesday the U13 girls had their first fixture of the year. They faced Brampton Manor in the Essex Cup. The team were instructed by Miss Stephens to receive the ball and look for a simple but effective pass, to stay composed and keep possession of the ball. The team did exactly that! Naomi captained the back line with Grace, Amelie and Bella making their first appearances for the school. Abi and Amelia then dominated the midfield, supplying Cheyenne with some great passes through on goal. Unfortunately, with lots of great shots and chances made, the oppositions goalkeeper kept the score at 0-0. Luckily for SRS, late into the second half Amelia created space for herself just outside the box and it flew past the keeper and into the goal. SRS remained strong to the final whistle and came away with the win. Bella was voted as POM!
