Slow to Begin

Slow to Begin.

As is all too common in their play, 'Varsity were slow to begin, but after being down 3-1 they rallied and by extremely fast and accurate positional play scored goal for goal with Kia ora. At this stage the goal combination between Erice Overton and Janet Grainger was undefendable and the many snappy movements were topped off by accuate shooting, especially on the part of the latter player. A newcomer to the team, Grace Kniverton, was proving most useful in backing up.

In the defence third. Marie Walker was giving her best exhibition of the season against a most able goal combination. Joan Bythell used her reach to the greatest advantage and made Kia Ora's goal-throwing very difficult. Sylvia Hefford made some brilliant interceptions, but in general did not play up to her usual consistent form.
