Berkeley Division 1

BAC 2 Wotton Ladies 1sts 4

WOTTON-under-Edge Ladies firsts were victorious over fellow relegatees from last season’s North Division, BAC, with a convincing scoreline.

BAC were first to score, putting Wotton under pressure.

Wotton galvanised and attacked again, with Lauren Jones putting the ball across the line to equalise.

Wotton won their second short corner, and a strike from Ellie Stimpson was deflected by player-of-the-match Myra Patterson.

Wotton appeared inspired after the break, and began to play to their potential.

Sharron Bates increased the score to three, and Leyland had a credible shot denied by the post, but finally made her second goal with a reverse stick bullet. BAC pulled one back, but Wotton finished on top.
