The Spike: or, Victoria University College Review October 1905

First Team

First Team.

V.C. v. Wellington Ladies I. Won, 3—0. An easy victory. Miss Tavendale missed the boat: so did the milk. To her honour be it said she walked and carried the mild with her. Miss Seagar received a severe blow on the face from the ball, played by one of our own side, be it known. The ground was under water. Miss K. McIntosh and Miss Roberts (2) scored.

V .C. v. Petone. At Miramar. Won, 5—0. Combination lacking in college forwards. Petone team suffered from the absence of both their usual wing forwards. The scorers were Miss Cox (4) and Miss Miller.

V .C. v. Aorangi I. At Miramar. Lost, 6—0. The game started with college one short; within five minutes Miss Roberts injured her knee and had to retire. Aorangi combination excellent.

V .C. v. Girls' High School I. At Miramar. Drawn, 1—1. Miss Cox scored. Forwards still lacking in combination. Miss Robertson as full back played well. Miss Scott played well on the wing, but was not supported by the rest of the forward line.

V .C. v. Wellington Ladies I. At Miramar. Won, 2—0. Miss Miller and Miss Renner scored. Played in rain and a howling gale. Miss Scott played brilliantly, and Misses Renner and Johnstone fully justified their incusing in the first eleven.

V .C. v. Girls' High School I. At Miramar. Drawn, no score. High School had the better of the game, but several times failed to score owing to offside play. College players need practice in hard, clean hitting.

V .C. v. S Aorangi. At Miramar. Lost, 3—0 . A good game throughout. The whole College team showed improvement. During the game some valuable advice was received from Mr Bridge, who reefed and coached both sides.

V .C. v. Ngatiawa. At Miramar. Lost, 1—0
