CROOKHEY HALL 5 - 2 WITHERSLACK HALL

Another great win for Crookhey Hall school in the league saw them go top in a very competitive competition this year. Mr Phillips, head coach, came back with this report.

“Crookhey Hall senior team maintained their 100% record with a by no means easy win over Witherslack.

The conditions dictated that this would be a scrappy game and there was no disappointment there. After a perfect start with goals from S. Lewis and J. Kirkby, Witherslack looked like they were just another victim for the in-form side. Then Witherslack remembered they were here to play football; and play they did.

Witherslack scored an impressive first goal only for Crookhey Hall to answer with their third, and J. Kirkby’s second. Again Witherslack turned on the style and brought the score to 3-2. Crookhey’s nerves began to show and Witherslack looked like they were going to get an equaliser.

Eventually some of the more experienced Crookhey players rallied together to score two more goals to make the final score 5-2.”
