CWFC vs WPWFC Reserves Game Summary.

The Reserves depth was tested again on Sunday following the elevation of five players into the senior team. Any concerns were put to bed early with Emily Dummer kicking three goals in the first 8 minutes of the game. The stage was now set for the Tigers to continue on their winning way with the game being put out of reach of the Falcons by half time.

The second half allowed for a number of players to be given opportunities in different ground positions with the aim of continuing the football education process.

Best players were Emily Dummer, Lou Carey, Jasmine Harkin, Erin O'Brien and Poppy Schwass. The effort of Caitlin Smales, Amberley Hope and Courtney Aylett was exciting from a player development point of view and did not go unnoticed by the coaching team.
