Report by Sean Campleman, Women’s 1st XI Coach:
The Women's 1stXI have made an excellent start to their Southeast Division 1 West campaign, securing four wins from their opening four matches.
The team has shown impressive consistency, attacking threat and defensive commitment across the opening fixtures, with each match providing valuable opportunities to demonstrate the quality and depth within the squad. Most recently, the team secured a hard-fought 1–0 victory against OG 2’s, producing a disciplined and determined performance to maintain their unbeaten start.
With four wins from four, the team currently sits second in the league on goal difference alongside EG 3’s, putting them firmly among the early pace-setters in what promises to be a competitive division. While it is still early in the season, the performances so far are an encouraging reflection of the commitment, teamwork and hard work being shown by the players.
The squad will now look to build on this strong foundation, maintain their high standards and continue to compete strongly as the season progresses.

The team are looking to build on their strong start to the season and will continue to train hard, with focus on developing their technical skills and tactical mindset. A tough away fixture against OGs awaits this weekend before the team head into a short break.
Nicholi as Captain adds, "It's been a really enjoyable start to the season from the early pre-season sessions on a Tuesday with the Club personal trainer Mauro, to Thursday night sessions with Suzy, and great to welcome a few new lads into the setup too. Standards at training are higher than we've ever seen them and we are all excited to build on the start we've had."
