Horbury Slazenger U16s put seven past Ben Rhydding But team are on wrong end of seven from Doncaster

THERE were contrasting results from Slazenger U16s' games against Ben Rhydding and Doncaster played at the weekend.

A superb display earned Slazenger a comprehensive 7-0 win over Ben Rhydding with Jack Kitchen completing a hat-trick and Tom Stoddart and Jessica Rudge netting two apiece.


But the result was reversed in the clash with Doncaster who scored seven in the second half.

Despite the defeat, Slazenger are still challenging at the top of the table.

Report: Mens 2nd's vs Ben Rhydding 3rd's

Slazenger’s seconds followed on from their great result last week with another solid victory against highly placed Ben Rhydding thirds.

Slazenger's have a new found confidence and this showed straight from the off, the whole team linking up well to create a number of chances with Neil Croucher at the centre of much of the play. The pressure paid off mid way through the half with Tim Carr getting a subtle touch past the keeper to give Slazenger's the lead.

After a half time reshuffle, Slazenger's began the second half with more shape and persistently caused the Ben Rhydding defence problems. Tim Carr grabbed his second goal with another good finish. The Slazenger's keeper was a spectator throughout thanks to the solid duo of Eddie Taylor and Murray Amesbury at the back. And after James Walker had made it three after some surprisingly unselfish play by Croucher, Tim Carr sealed a great win by completing his hat-trick.

Slazenger’s will look to continue their run of good form away at high flying Sheffield University Bankers fourths on Saturday.

Report: Mens 2nd's (1) vs (3) Ben Rhydding 3rd's

Slazenger’s seconds poor start to the season continued after they suffered a disappointing 3-1 defeat away to Ben Rhydding III in a game that they could have so easily won.

The game started with Slazenger’s playing some great hockey, making it their best half of hockey so far this season, to go in at the break a goal to the good. Dan Cooper latching onto a misdirected Tim Carr strike to give Slazenger’s a well deserved lead. Slazenger’s could have gone into the break two or three goals better off after some fantastic all round team play but some great goal keeping kept them at bay.

The second half was a different story however, with Ben Rhydding attacking in numbers, which saw them pull level and then take the lead midway through the second half. Slazenger’s rallied and began to control the play again but the loss of Ben Garside through his second yellow card in three games really put pay to the fight back, Ben Rhydding using their numerical advantage to kill the game off with a third.

Slazenger’s can take heart from a great first half performance but will have to learn to play for the full 70 minutes if they are to make an impression in what could turn out to be a tough league.
