TEAM: MENS 4's 
DATE: 04/09/2010 
FIXTURE: vs NCHC Mens 3's 
LEAGUE: N/A 
VENUE: Taverham 
RESULT: 1-3 
HEADLINE: Curtain Raised 
 
REPORT: 
 
The early season curtain raiser between NCHC 4's and 3's proved to be a hard fought contest. The 3's converted 2 short corners to lead 2-0 at half time but the 4's scored through a clean strike by Tim Crane after he had broken through the 3's defence. A second goal could have been added but 3's GK Joby saved well from a 1 on 1 with Tim Crane shortly afterwards. 
 
A third converted short corner sealed the match for the 3's but the 4's can take heart from their performance. 
 
Tighter defending at opposition short corners and better execution of attacking short corners is something to work on in early season. However, for a team meeting up for the first game of the season the outfield play was good. Mike Marrison, Tim Armstrong, and Adam Pink all worth special mention. A good debut for the side was also made by Luke. 
 
Next week, Harleston 5's away.... 
 
POTM: Mike Marrison
