County Cup Shield 22 November 2009
West Bridgford A 3 v Calverton Miners Welfare Girls 5
We arrived at the ground in style again with the support of the Calverton Connection, many thanks to Darren and Allan for your continuing support we think you are amazing.
The game kicked off and wham within 10 seconds Holly had put the ball into the net, back to the centre circle West Bridgford were stunned, our midlfield were struggling first half due to injuries and players not being in their normal position and we also were without the captain. West Bridgford equalised and then shortly before half time they were ahead.
A strong talking too and reshuffling around and off the girls went out and a first goal for Courtney in our colours produced the equaliser. We battled and battled uphill as the pitch was a slope with 10 mins to go West Bridgford had scored making it 3-2 the girls dug deep and pressurised and with 30 seconds to go Hobnob scored an amazing goal taking it into extra time.
A little bit of reshuffling and off we set off made a quick change bringing Georgia Nelson back on and a superb cross from Holly into the box and a superb finish from Georgia making it 4-3 we then kept the ball firmly in their half and took our time with not long left on the watch Holly snook one in at the end.
The battle was won a long and tiring game and worth it. We are now in the semi-final of the County Cup for the first time since they have been playing
.
A determined performance from you all .

Hi John
can u put both these match reports on for me
Calverton Miners Welfare 11 v Mansfield Town 2
We went into this match confidently and ready to play we wanted to protect our unbeaten record within minutes of the kick off we were one goal up , the defence were tight at the back as Mansfield were quick off the mark Hannah kept the defence in check with Ashleigh covering the wing and Bobby quick off the mark on the left with Robbo on the left too.
By half time we were 6-0 up we needed to keep on top as Mansfields form tells us they can come back from these scores, changes were made and off we went again bang bang bang
came the goals with a bucket full for holly and one for fleet and knowles,
Mansfield came back with a couple of goals of their own it was a match which we controlled and dictated it was a superb team performance
The score line may have been different if it wasnt for OUR MAN OF THE MATCH Rebecca our fantastic goalkeeper there were a couple of one on ones and out she came and saved some superb shots .
Well done girls

Calverton MIners Welfare 7 v Rainworth Tigers 2
This was a hard fought match between two teams both eager to put the ball in the netm there was some nail biting moments for us but eventually we found the net through Kirky her first this season not bad for a defender, eventually we started to find our recent form and another goal was popped in the back of the net, by half time we were 3-0 up, on the start of the second half Swanny was rallying her team on cos we were sleeping and bang Rainworth found the back of our net.
Another surge by Calverton produced another 4 goals and we were firmly in the driving seat
we conceded a penalty late on and Rainworth scored from it we applied pressure and finished the match confidently
Two super goals from Hobnob and four from Holly and the one from Kirky puts us firmly at the top of the league with 6 points clear at the moment
On behalf of Me and the rest of my team a fantastic performance we are very proud of you

KEYWORTH FC V CALVERTON MINERS WELFARE
Well after a nervous few phone calls with girls ringing in sick off we went to our away match with again our super Calverton Connections bus with the best driver too Mr Alan Gilmour three cheers for Allan, you bringing us such good luck the driving force behind us again.
We arrived safely at Keyworth and greeted Reedy from the girls league too we went off to the top of the field and thought oh no we gotta run up hill one way.
The whistle was blown and away we went, positions had been changed and Knowles and Hobnob occupied the wings with Fleet, Nutty and the Captain Lottie in the middle, with the defence of Welchy, Sterland, Hannah and Bobby on the left wing. Holly (Stevo) popped a super goal into the back of the net and having to run up hill too. Keyworth scored in our goal not long after, the girls lifted their head and upped their game bang thankyou Stevo for the second goal. Whistle was blown for half time, it had worked with hard work and determination defence was strong and was faultess at times .
Lottie was puffing and panting she was doing a good job of trying to keep up with Stevo, whistle blown back out on the field Nutty had come off and Biff came on. Its a lot easier running down a hill than up it, not long into the second half and bang well Knowles where did that come from and soon after bang Biff your first goal in Colts colours. Then well an amazing goal from the half way line Hughesey wat a cracking goal, with Stevo bagging the last couple of goals we secured a super victory.
We would like to thank Allan and Darren on behalf of the girls and Calverton Miners Welfare for their kind service and their wonderful support for the girls.
As your Manager girls I would like to say I am extremely proud of each and every one of you a big well done from me and the team
Keep it up girls as we love proving our chairman with his predictions wrong.

Ilkeston Town Ladies 3 v Calverton 6
CALVERTON CONNECTIONS WERE THE DRIVING FORCE TAKING THE CALVERTON U13 GIRLS STRAIGHT TO THE TOP OF THE LEAGUE
We were all very excited to be taken to our match away at Ilkeston on a posh new Calverton Connection bus driven by Allen. Thank You.
The girls were all fired up after travelling together for a change. So ready for the whistle, but whizz and Ilkeston shot straight down the field and slipped one in the back of the net – not even a minute had passed!
This shocked the girls but soon woke up and off we went. Fleety with her first goal in a Calverton shirt after her very near miss last week got our first goal. WOW – almost missed it – it was that fast, well done. Now she had the taste for it and in went another! All the team were well up for it now and kept the game going in their half. All played very well. Then here comes Holly (steve-o) with 1 – 2 – 3 & 4 FANTASTIC!
WE WERE ON FIRE!!
Unfortunately we had a couple of injuries, but all ok now. Everyone got a piece of the action. Well done girls another excellent team effort.
Final whistle – we all had a celebratory drink before having a photo taken outside the bus before our comfy journey home!
A BIG THANK YOU to Allen and Darren from the team and parents.

27 September 2009 - Calverton v West Bridgford
The result was 9-0 to us Colts Girlies
We started the match full of excitement and anticipation this was our first league match and we so wanted to win. We kicked off prompt at 2 and it wasn't long before Holly had opened the scoring, the defence line were left with very little to do lead by Kev and Han they kept their formation and delivered some cracking balls to the midfield.
Not long after another goal popped in closely followed by another Holly and Georgia were having a field day.
The midfield lead by John and Swanny were feeding the balls up front. Half time came and we were 6-0 up. What a good start to our opening game.
We began second half as we left the first, Fleet unleashed her right foot and smash it rattled the cross bar and bounced out unlucky but a goal is coming your way, followed by Swanny hitting the post too, some super throws by Bob caused all sorts of problems.
Holly then upped her pace and hammered more into the back of the net a double hat trick plus one and with Myrtle bagging a couple of her own the afternoon was complete and a huge success for all.
A superb team effort and an excellent start to the season - come on girls let's keep it up I am proud of you all.

Calverton v Bingham 6 September 2009
A good start to the season and a full turn out. We scored very early on in the game, a superb strike from Holly Jennings. The defence was well controlled and midfield was well managed. Our new players did tremendously well.
There were some shaky moments where we conceded two goals. But a good 3-2 win not a bad result for our first game at 11-a-side.
A very sporting game. Well done girls keep it up
Jo
