WSC U16s 3 - South Hobart 1

A great performance again this week from our Under 16 team, many of whom had competed in a school indoor soccer tournament at Huonville on Friday; a tournament in which they remained undefeated throughout and in which they had conceded no goals. It is testament to their skill, fitness and determination that Aiden, Bolan, Jordan, Kye, Phineas and Rainen had kept something in reserve for Saturday's game against South Hobart. Deans, had also played for the school team – scoring 2 great goals against Dover – but was unavailable for Saturday's match up.

The eventual score-line of 3 – 1 in Woodbridge's favour, belies the fairly even distribution of possession throughout the game. Woodbridge's defending though, was on fire; Rainen and Kye still pumped from the previous day's performances, plus Sindri and Jack who were calm and sure-footed, stymied the majority of South's attacks, letting precious little through to Aiden and forcing the visitors to mostly take ineffective shots from distance.

Woodbridge on the other hand displayed superior finishing in this game; Bolan grabbed the lead for the team about halfway through the first half and Phineas, who, about 5 seconds into the second half, demonstrated how shots from distance should go. But best of all a beautiful goal from an acute angle off Jy's new boots convinced us all that he is not jinxed after all, Hooray! Many thanks go to Jayden who agreed to play up with the older lads to give Woodbridge a full eleven players, he joined Riko and Jordan in a very effective, even if youngish midfield line-up. Excellent work.

Another great team performance, well done boys!
