Brooklands come to visit

As with the last few weeks, Stockport were the first to score in the game - but in a change from the last few weeks, our opposition scored in the first quarter too.  Brooklands gave us a good game and our defenders had a bit to do - which was great for them.  Whilst Brooklands were strong on the faces, our midfield line made sure that this didn't get too far, and we managed to win every quarter, although Q2 was close!
Good play all round with some great goals, and equally good assists.

Final score:  Stockport 22  Brooklands 5
Quarter scores:  8-1 / 3-2 / 5-2 / 6-0

Next fixture: Cup game vs Mellor, at home!
On target for Thomas

We'll get it with a bit of teamwork

Trip over to sunny Wilmslow

At the risk of sounding repetitive, today brought another great game for the U12s!  Over at Wilmslow, they got off to a great start, with 9 goals in Q1.  It was a slightly one-sided game really, with Wilmslow only getting on the scoreboard in Q3...
It gave the newer recruits a chance to get lots of match play, and it was a good game to start with for Sam - welcome to Stockport Lacrosse Sam!
And... we set a new record today with eleven, yes, ELEVEN, different goal scorers!! That's more goal scorers than players on the pitch at any one time!

Quarter scores:  0-9 / 0-6 / 1-6 / 0-3
Final Score - Wilmslow 1  Stockport 24

Next fixture:  at home vs Brooklands, and...

*Don't forget - Northern Soul Lacrosse will be at the club on Saturday, so, please remember to bring your wallets!

Poor Ben! that doesn't look comfy

Watch your back, Ryan!

Where does he go from here?

Look up, Lewis!

Stick-clash
Careful with our Lewis - ref's flag's raised...

Is Ryan being beamed up...??

Mmm, change of direction needed...
He's surrounded...
He's slipped through!!

Another goal for Michael!

Kai's goal on its way in!

Goal for Danny, with two #29s on the pitch for Stockport!

Defenders get stuck in

Tug o' war?

Up against a long stick!
