It was an interesting start to the day what with ‘RatGate’ and the setting up the pitch like it was the first game of hockey ever to be played at Abbeywood. We welcomed Kat to the team for the first time this season and after a lengthy chat from Kingers about the weather and chances of rain – detail curtesy of BBC News Carol, we got stuck into the warm up.

So we were back at Abbeywood this week for our re arranged game against Wick.!!
BAC started really well after a good warm up, kept possession really well and put the Wick defence under pressure early on and were rewarded with an early goal, tinny and Lisa b worked well and Lisa b found Kingers who score 1-0.
Yate3 1 – BAC 6

BAC headed to Yate this week for a league fixture against Yate 3s. The first half was slow and we didn’t get the start we wanted. Apart from a couple of penalty corners it was dull viewing from the side-line…probably.
Genuinely nothing to report… but wait for the next bit…
Wootton-Under-Edge 4 – BAC 4 (28/01/17)
Written by: Lizzie G
With sleepy dust still in their eyes, BAC travelled to Wootton Under Edge (WUE) for an early start. The journey must’ve woken everyone up as BAC started brightly with a lot of possession and several chances. On a rare break down the other end WUE were awarded a short corner and a clean strike resulted in a goal. The rest of the half was end to end with BAC having more chances, including Tinny pinging the ball off both the crossbar and the post. With our subs nursing bad knees and colds, the last thing we wanted to see was Bish hobbling off the pitch. Fortunately it was just a painful bruise from saving a goal with her knee and she was soon back on. As the half drew to a close BAC we awarded a short. The strike was cleared out of the D but was sent straight back in by Sal to Tinny who heard the sound of the ball hitting the backboard rather than the post. 1-1 half time.
