Kettering ladies 1s had to fight hard in this difficult game where a lot of decisions went against them. Warwick scored early but Kettering quickly settled and played some great attacking hockey down the left with interlinking play between Cath Irvin, Harriet Graham and Mandy Starsmore-Young creating a number of opportunities. Good defence by Warwick kept Kettering out and after half time Warwick again attacked strongly. Kettering's short corner defence of Kate Metcalfe, Stacy Hall, Liz Metcalfe, Michelle Tanser, Linzi Webster and Kate Randle kept a clean sheet from short corners, however Warwick added a second close to the end of the game from a sustained period of pressure. The score ended 0-2 but remains positive as there are a number of key players to return and the season has just begun!
