14/10/17 Match Report

St Albans 10s 2 - 3 SAHC 2s

What can only be described as a rather under- whelming performance, but for the time being the 2s go marching on and maintain their winning record.

The 2nd XI travelled to St Albans in good spirits, with 12 players, including Andy Sterllini in goal. The game started well with Adelaide controlling and pressing the home side, who had no goal keeper and played with a kicking back. However after the first 10 minutes the team began to lose it's way and St Albans began to come back into it. Midway through the half Adelaide preseed an attack through the centre and a deft pass from the top of the D found Mark Smith unmarked to the right of the goal and he duly slid the ball home (welcome back Mark).

Despite the goal advantage the game continued to slide away from us and eventually after some sustained pressure St Albans equalised. A freak deflection from just inside the top of the D was left by goal keeper Andy, who judged that the attacking stick had connected with the ball outside the circle. The half ended 1 - 1.
The second half began just as the first had, with Adelaide in the ascendancy, but again the home side began to creep back into it. A goal from Bharat (a rare occurrence, but certainly a welcome one), running in from the top of the D and striking from the right, was then followed by a 3rd from George Gemmill, scoring from an improvised short corner. It finally looked like it might be a comfortable win for us, but a second goal for St Albans from a reverse hit, which sneaked inside the post, set up a very nervous closing few minutes. Thankfully we hung on to secure the win.

Well done everyone and let's hope we can play a lot better in our next game.

Match report 14 October 2017

Adelaide 3 - 3 Rickmansworth 4s (inc Adelaide 1s)

Our opposition could only muster 5 players so conceded the result giving us our first points. But they wanted to play a match so this week I faced the considerable challenge of gathering 17 players, about twice the average number last season! In the end we had 19, 14 3rd XI players, William, three from the 1s and Ria from the ladies so both sides had a substitute.

We had a decent squad so I decided to give the opposition all the 1s players, Ria and a not entirely reluctant Ashley to give us a strong opposition. It was a great game.

We began strongly largely thanks to a magisterial performance from Mike Solomons who showed how centre half should be played. He always distributed the ball as quickly as possible which kept our opponents on the back foot. Wayne at centre back was busy as ever and embarked on the occasional run upfield to launch attacks. Stephen swept up effectively at the back and Adrian quietly denied the talented young opposing left wing any chance of a clear run at goal.
We were soon ahead through a goal from Jan Willem before Rashmi added a second after a bit of pinball in the circle. Mike Lord netted following a fine move and pass from Mike S but this was disallowed due to an earlier foot and we missed out on a possible penalty flick. William played all the forward positions with aplomb even having a few shots at goal.

There was plenty going on at the other end where Sukh was proving to be a tremendously effective tackler and moving the ball on to Jan Willem who had a superb game at left half.

But the best performance came from David in goal who not only positioned himself well to block attackers shots but also did a couple of excellent instinctive saves, well done!

Unfortunately after half time Mike S felt a hamstring twinge and had to retire. Everyone continued to play well but tired a bit and missed his dominating presence. Nigel on right wing battled to the end and created a couple of opportunities but the opposition just managed to creep back in to the game and equalised with five minutes to go. They then created a great chance for Ashley to give them a win but Mike L blocked the crisp shot and saved the result at the end.

A great performance that augurs well for the weeks to come!

Match report 9 October 2017: 3s v Letchworth 4.

Two injury problems meant we arrived in Letchworth with only 9 players and no goalkeeper so we were faced with a challenge of utmost difficulty. Fortunately, a sighting of a group of adolescents in Letchworth outfits proved not to be our opponents who turned out to be much closer to our age and level; although there were about 15 of them. Adrian Lord bravely volunteered to play in goal and Parit (doubling up from the 2s and nursing an injury), opted for the unfamiliar position of right back. The team set up in a defensive formation, hoping to blunt the opposition’s attack whilst aiming to create chances on the counter.


And the attacks certainly came. Our lack of players upfront meant that the opposition could easily switch the ball around the back, keeping our defence on their toes. Valiant efforts by our defenders John Bennett, Stephen Biggins and Parit, were highly effective but we could not prevent Letchworth benefitting from their two extra players and finding the net 3 times before half time. Our team performed exceptionally well, in addition to the very solid defence our line of halves, Jan-Willem, Sukh and Ashley intercepted many balls while magnificent dribbling from Brian Beisty delivered some opportunities for Nigel Hurst upfront.


After half time, the relentless pressure continued, but tiredness seemed to affect our opponents more than us. Parit switched positions with Sukh, playing more upfield, connections with Brian and Nigel upfront became easier and the balance of the game started to tip in our favour. We managed to win three short corners, but were unfortunately unable to convert these into a mention on the score sheet before the final whistle.


Overall we are proud of our performance and left the pitch knowing that with a full team we could have won. We are looking forward to the return game at home!
