Total Inineelation!

Hebden Royd Ladies  0 v 9  Bradford Park Avenue Ladies

Avenue Ladies came back to form with a bang as they travelled to League strugglers Hebden Royd United. A new look formation allowed several players to express themselves alot more freely, whilst supporting lone striker Christina Berry upfront.

It took just 20 minutes for in form midfield sensation Sarah Huby to get the Ladies off the mark with a belting finish, nine minutes later scorer turned provider as Huby sent Christina through to solt away calmly. Berry doubled her tally some ten minutes later, before Sarah Huby completed a very symetrical scoresheet for the first half by getting a second for herself, with another lovely finish, Danielle Williams with the assist.

As the second half got underway some more tidy passing and controlled defending saw Avenue continue to dominate, by the 50th minute Captain Sarah Huby stole the matchball by completing her hattrick. Christina, not to be outdone, joined the party and completed her own hattrick some 11 minutes later. Avenue where now running the show with swift, flowing moves and solid, calculated defending, the more Hebden pushed the greater the resistance. After 75 minutes Laura Wolfenden got on the scoresheet, and Christina forgot where the goals were blazing two sitters over the bar!!

As the game entered the final ten minutes it was time for Annie Roberts to launch an attack, Laura Fagan sent her through and Roberts sent it home. As the game came to a close there was just time for Mel Houldsworth to bang a free kick into the mix, Laura Wolfenden flicked it on and Annie Roberts grabbed a brace as she sent it home.

A superb performance by the Ladies showing that they have the ability to pick themselves up, dust themselves down and punish sides after dis-appointment. Sections of the game showed form that is good enough to match and better any team within the League, and as recent results have humbled the squad they have also created a determination to prove just how good this Avenue side is. A well deserved clean sheet, for the first time in the League this season, with some tireless play from Tessa Shaw and Laura Fagen at the back. Excellent support play by wingers Benamin and Roberts, creativity and skill from Danielle Williams through the middle and relentless work from Chamberlin, Huby, Wolfenden and Berry in the final third gave a truly deserved result.

A well earned rest now before the journey to nearest League rivals Lepton Highlanders in what could prove to be a cracking game.

Ram Raided

Bradford Park Avenue Ladies  2 v 4  Northowram Ladies

Avenue Ladies crashed out of the League Cup at the Quarter Final stage on Sunday after another disappointing performance. Northowram took an early lead as the home side took a while to settle into their game, but the Ladies didn't seem to allow this to concen them as they rode the early pressure and took control of the game. Some impressive football paid off as Jill Middleton bagged an equaliser. Soon after the dominace of the home side was too much for the vistors and Jill scored for a second time.

At half time it appeared like there would be only one team to contiue their dominance into the second period, however Avenue where made to pay for squandered chances when a clearence come cross from some 25yards by Northowram settled into the Avenue top corner. From here the game opened up and despite chances falling to Captain Sarah Huby, the welcomed back Mel Houldsworth and in form Jill Middleton the Ladies couldn't see their opposition off. Eventually the inevitable happened and Northowram took the lead after Avenue once again got pulled out of position. As the home side pushed to get the equaliser a long ball wasn't dealt with and Northowram broke to score a fourth.

Laura Wolfenden was another welcome addition during the second half after injury but sadly she couldn't change the result. Sarah Huby was in inspirational form through the centre of the field and truly lead by example she deserved more for her efforts but can take some comfort from the fact that she has set the bar for her team mates to aspire to over the coming weeks.

Although Avenue have be removed from the League Cup they still feature in the County Cup and sit in a healthy position in the County Premier.

We wish our victors good luck in the fourth coming semi-final and apprieciate the large crowd the brought with them which added to the tense atmosphere.

Next up Silden at Home.
