The girls this year have had a pretty frustrating time with hardly any game time, although they have had lots of training weekends and they are looking sharper and better in every department. The real test though comes in games.
This years inter services saw the girls put up a brilliant fight against the RAF and showed total commitment. They never once let their heads go down and losing was not an option.
Against the Army it was the same story although we got beat by the better team by far, we never once threw in the towel. The improvement though was amazing, we turned around completely the stats on the speed at the play the ball making ours an average of two seconds and delaying the army play the ball constantly. The defence in the first ten minutes was a joy to behold and unfortunately we couldn't keep the ball in our hands and kept turning over possession which in turn meant more defending which then meant we became tired again.
The effort and commitment of you girls and the commitment of Fred West is inspirational and I know that you will, given the right amount of game time in a season, one day show the army you can play for the full 80mins.
Love you all to bits
