East Grinstead 2's 1-1 Ladies' 4th XI
Once players had been stolen left, right and centre, Brighton finally had a full team. Thanks must be given to Cathy, Poppy, Ann-marie, Emma & Sophie for filling the gaps.
As the score shows, Brighton and EG were pretty evenly matched as apparently half their team were on a hen weekend (priorities hey!), so they too had to nab players from lower teams.
The first goal came early on in the second half when Brighton were awarded a penalty corner. A strong push out from Kate to Cath Doyle saw her rocket the ball into the back of the net.
EG soon levelled the score with a little help from their 'bouncy' water based pitch!
There was a chance for Brighton to go ahead in the final minutes, a free hit from just outside the D taken by Alexis just needed one touch to get it in...just one touch...with your stick Cathy!!! 10 out of 10 for comedy moment.
The game also saw two goals disallowed and numerous bodies being hit by a flying hockey ball.
All in all it was a great game, enjoyed by all.
