Timperley vs. Poynton.
Our first match of the season and the first match for the new combined team. Well, we had a steady start but then went 1 goal down but thanks to a Michael Bauer goal we ended even at the end of Q1 (1-1). The second quarter proved to be a similar story, with Poynton getting 2 more goals but fortunately Jack Cox did the business (2 goals), resulting in a 3-3 scoreline. Poynton grew in confidence in Q3 and we ended 3-4 down with an injured goalie, luckily James S was on standby and we went into the last quarter with all to play for. The team finally kicked into gear led by Cameron Parkes - illustrating in his play what being a good captain means! Cameron got 2 into the net, Tim Nicol got his first of what should be many this season and Jack got another one in. Despite Poynton pulling one back, Timperley were victorious with a final score of 7-5. Well done lads - as Cameron said - you left it a bit late, and we need to watch the catching and passing as there were too many errors. However, it's early in the season and we won!

U12A results week 1
Timperley A 20-0 Wilmslow
Timperley A 13-0 Poynton
Two very conclusive victories this morning, as the season finally got underway.
This team almost picks itself, with 10 players returning from last season's victorious A team, and it is simply a case of the new boys slotting into an already good team. It is evident that the whole team can handle the ball and we looked really effective in transition, with the ball moving effortlessly from defence, to midfield, to attack.
This team can really go places this season, but it has to remain focussed and do the fundamentals properly, even when we are winning by a huge score. We are good already, and we have 6 months of lacrosse to get even better. Given that the basics are already in place, this season will be a case of coaching the boys how to play their game at a higher level. This is the challenge I want to set for this team. Not just to win, but to win in a manner that will set them up for the U14 next season.
Today's goals
Cox 10, Loveland 8, Crosby 4, Callaghan 3, Robins 3, Hunn 2, Kinghorn 2, Townsley 1
