HEADLINE: Seeing the season out with a home draw.
LEAGUE: EAST DIVISION 4 NORTH EAST (NORTH)
VENUE: TRF
RESULT: D 1-1
REPORT:
The last game of the season, the fullest team we have fielded this year and the best turnout of supporters to egg us all on!
We came to the game wanting desperately to end the season on a high and the game didn't disappoint. We went out there, played our hearts out and enjoyed every moment.
We passed well, kept our shape and worked well communicating between us and it was this winning formula that saw Saskia storm the right wing, ping the ball in a superb cross to Liz who slotted it in the right of the goal - and we were 1 nil up! Half time came, and we were determined to keep our heads and not get careless, we pulled together to pass better, stronger and faster to try and get that win, but a cross from Harleston and a good touch from their player saw the equalizer in our goal!
We didn't give up, we threw everything at it - we ran our heart out, but couldn't quite find their goal.
We ended in a draw, but we weren't disappointed. We celebrated our season in style - chocolate cake, cups of tea and good company! Roll on next year - we are coming back stronger.

At half time we were ready to go again, but unfortunately Watton found the back of our goal and we just couldn't quite find theirs.

RESULT: L 1-2
REPORT:
Playing third in the league we expected a tough one and five minutes in to the game came the first goal against us; 1 nil down and we had barely drawn breath. We fought back though with some great wide balls and passing up the wing in triangles but the 2nd goal came out of a short corner; we all started jogging back to reset, but the refs were conferring and goal disallowed! It never went out of the D. We were back in it and with 10 minutes to spare in the first half, Clare pings the ball to Sarah who slots it in to the goal - I don't think either team could believe it. Half time and it was all to play for.
We were keen not to get comfortable, we knew it was all still to play for so we went back in to the 2nd half with our heads up and determined. We held them till the final minutes when a converted short corner saw Dragons 2-1 up.
Time ticked away and we couldn't get that equalizer, but we were proud of holding them to that score.
POTM Saskia Ashdown for her amazing runs and tenacity!

It was a grey and miserable morning, and we thought we had a tough game ahead playing third in the league but we were determined to give it our all and see if we could put the cat amongst the pigeons.
We started off well, held position, passed confidently and pushed for their goal. 10 minutes in and Thalia found the back of the net from a lovely set up by Saskia.
City had anticipated a heavy loss - and we were 1 nil up!!
Half time came and went, and we help Diss at bay; until the final 8 minutes when a nice strike on goal saw Diss equalize from a short corner. We tried to bring it back, but time was against us and we finished with a draw; but hey, it wasn't the loss it could have been.
Emily Morton got POTM for her fabulous defensive work!
A lovely game against a lovely team!

REPORT:
After our last encounter with Herlings, we knew we were up against a big hitting team, and braced ourselves for the battle.
We were fielding a very young team, but this energetic and enthusiastic approach, teamed with with the dogged experience of the elders meant we were actually quite a force to be reckoned with.
A bold strike on our goal saw us go one nil down, but City didn't let it keep us down. We fought back to keep them honest till half time and kept positivity high.
The second half was much the same. A hard fought battle by City, and several saves off the line finally saw one further ball in the back of our goal. We ended 2 nil down but were pleasantly surprised that we had kept it to just that.
Abbie, in her debut for the team, got a very well deserved POTM!

HEADLINE: A late home day win
LEAGUE: EAST DIVISION 4 NORTH EAST (NORTH)
VENUE: TRF
RESULT: W 1- 0
REPORT:
We arrived to the late afternoon game with very little time to warm up and even less time to prepare for this game. Fielding only one sub for the first half, and down to no subs by half time we knew it would be tough.
We were strong from the offset, holding Loddon in their half and keeping good possession. There were a few breaks on our goal, that were quickly shut down; and a decent amount of attempts on their goal which we just couldn't convert. We had a succession of short corners, which Loddon defended well but we went in to half time nil- nil.
There was frustration we couldn't quite convert, but generally we were positive going in to the second half and knew we could surely keep them to a draw at the very minimum.
Eventually, for being patient, the opportunity came when Saskia lined Liz up at the top of the D, and with a swift slap in we were 1 nil up; or were we?
Loddon contested the goal, saying we weren't in the D - the umpires both conferred whilst the pitch stood confused. The goal was allowed! We just had to defend the lead now. Loddon fought back but couldn't get a goal against us and we walked away with the win.
Liz Hollis got POTM, not only for her goal, but also her great team spirit in working back to defend too! Very much deserved

VENUE: Dragons
RESULT: W 2-0
REPORT:
City were ready for this early morning duel and ready to fight for Alicia's first match against her former team. We started off strong as a team, but evenly matched by Dragons. Play was good and just 7 minutes in Alice Brown managed to give us the advantage with the first goal of the day. We were elated but keen to keep our heads down and not get excited or careless as a result. There were opportunities in both Ds for either team to score but with some excellent defensive work, we went to half time 1 nil up.
We came back in to the 2nd half with the determined mindset that we were going to maintain our advantage, but that we had to play as if we weren't currently winning. City started just as strong and 9 minutes in Alicia Fairweather boosted our advantage with the 2nd goal of the game. We were comfortably ahead but knew we now had to be very careful to maintain this and not let Dragons fight back.
The final whistle came 2-0 to us! Our first win of the new year and a welcome one too! Player of the match went to Alice Baker for her outstanding defensive work and her quiet confidence and control of the ball! She's firmly booked her place in the 6s if and when we are allowed her.

RESULT: L 0- 2
REPORT:
Fielding 15, we went in to today thinking anything was possible but knowing, it wasn't going to be easy against the team sitting 3rd in the league.
We started off well, matching North Norfolk in possession and energy and for a while both teams kept a clear score sheet. We fended off 2 short corners and didn't allow them to convert these, but in the final few minutes of the first half we conceded the first goal of the game which we then had to fight harder to come back from.
A rousing team talk from Ali at half time, pointed us in the right direction and we came back stronger in the 2nd half. Unfortunately, we conceded a further goal, but didnt let it get us down and we fought till the end, working harder to close down their 16s, push ours out sooner and generally upset the opposition.
Once again, we found our rhythm in the second half and came away from the game positive; we just need to keep that sheet clean in the first half!
Millie very rightly earned POTM with some awesome defensive work.
On to the next one, we are turning this round and improving week on week - is next week the winning one?

VENUE: Breckland Lesiure centre
RESULT: L 1-5
REPORT:
Fielding only 11 players, we knew it was going to be a tough game but we were hopeful of it being a good game nonetheless. CIty started off with good possession and an even better attitude. We came up against it in the first half, when Thetford sent a massive shot on goal which flew by us all, but we weren't perturbed, we now knew what we were up against.
Jess in goal had some brilliant saves against these big hitters, but unfortunately 2 more pinged by, at height, and in to our goal in the first half. Not once did City let this stop them though, We defended their short corners and conceded no goals on these, despite one ball pinging off Sarah Smith's mask!
Half time came and despite the score line, city were in good spirits. We had gotten used to how we needed to play this game and settled in to it. We went back in to the second half as a team and were the first to score this half, from a short corner Kate got City, a fabulous injection was smacked back to goal line by Alice (rightfully getting her POTM today) and tapped in brilliantly by Liz - you'd have thought we had just scored the winning goal!
Unfortunately, a shot on goal blocked by a player meant Jess has to face a penalty flick, and despite her best efforts we were 4-1 down. Another tricky scrap in the D meant one more goal went in, and shortly after we were left with only 10 players on the pitch for the last 10 minutes due to injury. We battled to the bitter end, we upset the apple cart with the opposition and we fought every minute. A team to be proud of, despite the final score. You did us proud girls!

RESULT: L 3-0
REPORT:
CIty turned up to an early away game at Harleston with a hybrid 6s and 7s team. We were all keen to get back to hockey after a lengthy break for Christmas, but hesitant about what the game would bring.
We conceded an early goal, converted from a short corner and could have gone down hill from here, but city kept their heads up and battled to keep possession. A good shot on goal from a long battle in the D, and a further short corner conversion meant City were 3 nil down by half time.
Going in to the 2nd half, we could have had our heads down and given up, but we fought till the bitter end chasing those long balls down and trying to get the goals. Whilst we weren't able to convert these in to any goals, we kept the score sheet clean in the second half and really proved a challenge to the Harleston team who had run away with it in the first half. The team settled in, worked brilliantly together and played some really nice hockey. It wasn't the score we came to Harleston for, but the second half alone made it worth turning out on this windy and wet morning.

City held Dereham to account for three-quarters of the game, keeping the score line at zero despite numerous attempts on our goal and having expected a difficult game and a lot of goals. We passed well, kept it wide and kept them out of our goal, whilst getting some good opportunities on their goal. Unfortunately, they broke through with the first goal of the game and another two followed. City fought till the end and despite the loss, were pleasantly surprised by the gameplay and the challenge we posed to Dereham.
POTM went to Sam Harvey for some incredible defending!!!

REPORT:
City turned up to their late game in good spirits not knowing much about our opposition, but ready to take on anything ahead of us.
We started off strong, keeping good possession and breaking down their play, barely allowing Diss into our 23, let alone our D. However after 20 mins Diss broke into the lead, converting their first short corner into a goal. This unfortunately was followed by another three short corners, which Diss scored.
City looked defeated and needed to shake things up after half-time. Diss started well and scored a further 2 goals from short corners putting them 0-5 in the lead. City pulled together for the last 15 minutes putting pressure on the opposition D. We had a couple of great chances with some great runs from Niamh Rushton and Cara Bredican, and Sarah Sandell did score a goal; however, it was disallowed as she put it in the goal with her foot :)
It wasn't the game we planned, but when the going got tough, City pulled together and battled till the end. POTM when to Sam Harvey for some solid defending, commanding the defensive line, and even making up a few rhythms in her spare time.

VENUE: Breckland Leisure Center
RESULT: 2-1
REPORT:
The Womens 6s travelled to the Breckland Leisure Center to face the formidable Herlings 1s. The City team was depleted having lost a few of their core players. But luckily for them, several players from the Womens 7s stepped up to help them out.
In the first half, City kept their formation well and made some good passes. There were opportunities at both ends, however, none of them was successful. Herlings made some good opportunities for themselves, with some extremely hard hits towards the City goal. During one opportunity they had a shot from the right-hand side of the goal which Sam inadvertently deflected off the keeper's pads and into the goal. It was a cracking deflection - just in the wrong goal! Luckily for City, this goal didn't count, as none of the Herlings players touched the ball inside the D. The first half ended 0-0.
City, got off to a good start in the second half, scoring fairly early on. A beautiful interception by Kate outside the opposition's D, a sublime pass to Liz Hollis who as ever was ready and waiting in the D, followed by an amazing shot at goal. City's joy was short-lived however, as Herlings then scored after 5 mins. City tried to hold on as best as we could,. We still had several chances at the Herling's goal, but never put their keeper under pressure. All it took for Herlings to take a win was one more straight strike towards the City goal, which they did. City kept battling to the very end, making some good runs into the D, but we just couldn't find a shot at goal.
Final score 2-1 to Herlings, Kate won POTM.
Thank you to Sarah and Katie Smith, and Rebecca Morton who came up from the 7s to help us out today. We could not have played without you guys, and you all made a fantastic effort and were a real asset to the team. We don't do DOTD in the womens 6s but if we did I know who I'd vote for ;)

HEADLINE: Show Down At Langley
LEAGUE: EAST DIVISION 4 NORTH EAST (NORTH)
VENUE: Langley School
RESULT: 0-1
REPORT:
A sunny day at Langley School pitch to play Loddon and a new line-up with lots of team members who had never played together before.
Norwich 6s have been promoted to a higher league this season – moving up along with today’s Loddon opponents who finished just below them last season. This made a win at Langley an important gain if Norwich are to succeed in the new league.
The new squad still need time to find their rhythm for the season, but unfortunately didn’t have the luxury of easing into this game slowly. A forceful Loddon pressed City hard forcing them to work hard to maintain a clean sheet.
The ball moved from end to end with Norwich turning the ball over more than they would like as they struggled to find their usual passing rhythm.
Loddon failed to score and Norwich won plenty of action in their attacking 25 but unfortunately couldn’t quite find the net.
Norwich went into the half time break at nil nil and after a motivating talk from captain Elle went back out determined to score.
In the second half, Loddon attempted to outlet from numerous 16s, but Norwich were pressing harder and picking up botched clearances in midfield.
While Norwich were never out of danger they managed to penetrate Loddon’s D much more successfully in the second half.
At last, Norwich found the net, slotting it round the right side of the keeper to go one goal ahead.
The rest of the match was a continued battle to keep Loddon off the scoresheet and there was relief when the final whistle sounded and Norwich had won.

REPORT:
With a new team and lots of new faces, the city team came out in force. Thetford had the first pushback, with an early sprint to score 1st in the 4th minute. We conceded another goal in the 20th minute with lots of stops and starts. Thetford had a strong defence, but the City side still managed to have lots of opportunities but unfortunately, they weren’t successful.
After a much-needed team talk from our coach at halftime, feeling a little more gathered to start afresh in the second half. City was awarded a short corner via a speedy sprint from Cara in the D. City set up for the short, a right slip to Alice Petch and a strong sweep, which meant we scored in the 48th minute!
The second half saw lots of short corners awarded to the city side. City, had lots of attempts on goal, and most definitely the stronger team in the second half. An unlucky goal from Thetford to make the end result 3-1. Even with a loss, an impressive start with a new team, lots of potential for the season. Great saves and defence with lots of speedy forward too!
POTM was Saskia for some amazing runs and offering some great chances for City goals.
