This was a game of 2 halves, and the final score by no means reflected the battle that took place on the pitch.
Brooklands put out a strong team, and Timperley had to fight hard to finish the first half 6-4 ahead.
At half time, it felt like the game would be in the balance for the full 4 quarters.
But that's when things changed...
What happened saw the Timperley U15 Girls take the game by the scruff of the neck!
In Q3 they completely dominated the quarter.
Timperley were ruthless, scoring 9 or 10 goals without reply in ONE QUARTER.
They then continued to dominate in Q4, giving Brooklands no chance to respond.
It was EXACTLY what was asked of them at half time, and ! have to pay a huge compliment to all the girls for the manner in which they engaged and delivered.
Sharper shooting, better movement, sublime passing, controlled aggression and a will to win - it was all there today!
We had no less than 7 scorers! That's impressive!
What a start! - There is work to be done to turn todays 'Q3 play' into 'U15 whole game play', but that's for Wednesday night!;-)
For now, enjoy the win girls! You absolutely deserve to!
Thanks to the parents today for their support and to Robin for all the help.
Season underway! Let's Go Timperley! :-)
