It was my second pre season game today for Arnold eagles. We had a lot of players pull out due to injury and COVID
We got to the ground and it was such a lovely ground, both pitches were in excellent condition and the changing facilities.
We only had 11 players so knew it was going to be a struggle, one of our new outfield players stepped into goal for us.
We started the game brightly and the girls were very much up for this one. we knew we had to reserve our energy and time our tackles as we had no subs.
Before the game I was given the captains band which I wasn’t expecting, it was a great moment to lead the team out especially with me being new.
We went 1-0 up after 15 mins a great through ball by cat which I latched on too and scored top right corner, my second goal came 10 mins after by another fantastic ball my Hollie.
Half time fast approached and everyone was giving it there all. But we was starting to get tired. Coalville managed to pull a goal back by a fantastic corner.
End result 2-1 to us, felt very proud coming off the pitch and fully enjoyed it, season starts next week
