U16s White Development team got this afternoon's fixtures underway at Watsonians. A number of call-offs meant we had to draft in some u14s but they were excellent! Unfortunately we had gk call-offs too so we were without that key player! We had the opening chances and although I think they scored first but we pulled one back almost immediately. We were a bit unlucky to be penalised for a high clearance form the circle which looked quite far away from anyone to me and then got a 2nd followed by a 3rd from conceding a Flick.
We continued to play good hockey and created some excellent opportunities but their GK made a difference! We had a great move down with 3 passes followed by a drive and cut back which Scarlette met well but deflected just wide. A number of good crosses were made but we failed to get the clinical final touch. Lots of experience gained from the first match of the season - onwards and upwards!
