West Hobart stars eclipse Supernova

West Hobart v. Princes Street Supernova
Score: 1 - nil win to West Hobart
Goals: Anna Jamison
Goalies: Amber and Bella

After a good warmup before the game, West Hobart started in confident fashion on a beautiful morning at Olinda Grove. The Princes Street team were low on players so West Hobart lent them Jacinta and Josie to even up the numbers.

In the first half, West Hobart had the ball at their end much of the time, but no goals resulted until AJ slipped it past several Princes Street defenders (and their goalie) to get a score on the board (see first photo). AJ was wearing yet another beautiful scrunchie from her extensive botanical range.

A penalty kick was awarded to Princes Street when a West Hobart player accidentally touched the ball with her hand but no equalizer resulted. See the photo below (ball arrowed).

No further goals were scored in the the second half although play was more even between the teams.

Bijou, Alice C and Alice F on the backline did a strong job repelling the more determined Princes Street players and Rosie's great work around the midfield prevented many balls from getting any further. Nadia, Millie, Bella and AJ all worked together on the forward line.

Rhianna retired hurt after her injured ankle received another blow - we all hope you're back soon.

Well done to Jacinta, Josie and Alice F (briefly in the second half) who played for the other team, as your good sportmanship meant a better game for everybody!

Finally, let's salute some of the parents and dedicated chauffeurs, including these three chaps hiding behind sunglasses. We know who you are ...
