Bootham Girls returned to Hull for round six of the Junior Futsal Series, aiming to extend an impressive run of five consecutive victories and maintain their position at the top of the league.

With several players unavailable, the squad saw first starts in Hull for Poppy and Agnes, alongside a return to the starting line-up for Alexis. Facing a well-organised Morley Futsal Club, the team knew they could not afford to be complacent.

Taking to the court were Emily C, Maisie M, Maya G, Sophie C, Poppy L, Rusne V, Agnes C, Alexis D, and Scarlett W in goal. Despite being an inexperienced line-up, the team showed no lack of confidence as they prepared for a challenging match.

Player of the Match – Agnes C – Making her Hull debut for the club, we were excited to see what Agnes could bring after some cracking performances in training, and she absolutely delivered. She scored the only goal of the first half and followed it up with a second well taken finish after the break. On top of the goals, she worked tirelessly, put in some superb tackles, and helped her teammates in every situation. A fantastic debut, well played, Agnes!

Coaches Comments: Coach Michael said after the games, “Over the last fortnight the girls have been working hard in training on delaying the opposition to give their teammates time to recover into position. Today that effort really showed. It was a low scoring game, but the clean sheet was a brilliant reward for their discipline and teamwork. We asked them to work hard for each other, and they didn’t let us down. It was a great match from both sides and a brilliant advert for this wonderful sport. We wish Morley all the very best for the rest of their fixtures and look forward to seeing them again soon.”
