Family team

The Gorse Fox had football scheduled for the morning and the Coventry Hobbit had agreed to come along and try it. The Gorse Fox went along to LA to collect the Coventry Hobbit and we headed to the centre. The game turned out to be a 6-v-6 and though they seemed a little lop-sided, we expected it would be hard work and not in our favour. Again, it turned out to work against the expected run of play.

The Coventry Hobbit played in goal during the first half and did really well, keeping our goal secure during most of the first half. He did eventually concede twice, but that was in response to our 4 or 5 goal advantage. In the second half, he came out onto the pitch. We continued to build our lead and the Coventry Hobbit added 4 goals to our tally, the Gorse Fox 2 more. In the end, we finished the game with a 12 or 13 goal lead over their 4 goals.

The Coventry Hobbit declared it was fun and he was certainly keen to do it again.

We had a quiet afternoon.
