MATCH REPORT

Hahndorf U12 White had an impressive start to the season with a convincing win over Strathalbyn.

From the opening whistle, Hahndorf had a strong start to the game with best player of the match Hayden Lien scoring the opening goal within the first five minutes. Strathalbyn promptly took to the attack with a great save by Reilly Bowden immediately prior to conceding the only goal of the match. Bowden backed this up with further impressive saves throughout the first half proving any pre-season cobwebs had been blown away. Zoe York’s ability to read the game was evident with thoughtful play and encouragement of younger players. New player Jasper Jones’ powerful kicks were welcomed in defence alongside Harry Mumford. Similarly, Patrick Hinze demonstrated some strong defensive skills and great sportspersonship. Second goal of the match was scored by Jacob Gardner at quarter time with the third by Harrison Gould scored just five minutes later. A few more near misses lead to the fourth goal of the match by Emlyn Gilroy. New player Dante Man showed a keenness for the ball in defence with Hinze maintaining strong focus.

Coming back after halftime, Hahndorf maintained consistent pressure on the opposition with Gardner demonstrating excellent keeping skills. Lien and Gilroy each scored an additional two goals and Gould scored one skilfully aided by the likes of Ryder Hill. Both Jones and Man continued to display strong defensive skills clearing the ball. There were also some impressive attempts by Oliver Dahmke, Beesley and Hill. Admirable leadership was shown by Hahndorf’s senior players Bowden, Dahmke, Mumford and York throughout the game, providing opportunities for their team mates to score. Final score for the match was 9 Hahndorf to 1 Strathalbyn.

Hahndorf Under 12 White wish to thank Strathalbyn Under 12 for the game played Saturday 27 June 2020.
