Final Warmup Match Provides Goals, Goals, Goals

The Capitals hosted Lakehill's Girls U17 team at Royal Athletic Park on Saturday morning.  Reports from players and fans were as follws..
- it was cold both on the field and in the stands
- the girls came out slow but went into the lockers at half time with a 2-0 goal lead
- a half-time "pep talk" from Nigel reminded the girls to focus, play up to their potential and not take the opposition too lightly
- the girls took heed to this and came out in the second half and increased their work rate and pressure on the Lakehill team.  This resulted in a number of goals in the second half.
- the Caps then used this lead to then work on their possessional soccer

Thanks to Lakehill for hekping the GU14's get warmed up and ready for their march to gold down in Florida.
