The under 19's team played their first game of the seaon against Seasiders. The team were unlucky with late withdrawals due to injury - Laura is now banned from doing James Bond impersonations! - and players not available due to work commitments.

The patched together team included at least 4 players playing out of position and 2 players who were only cleared to play the evening before the match. As the team also included one regional player, they also started the game with a 10 goal deficit.

All in all, the players put in a fine, battling performance drawing the first quarter and winning the following three. But, in the end, the team couldn't quite knock off the deficit and, although scoring more than Seasiders (the actual score ending 29-24), with the 10 goals added to the Seasiders score lost the game 29 - 34.

All the players deserve credit for putting in 100% effort, playing in unfamiliar positions without complaint and almost making it a victory against all the odds.
