Match Report – Under 12 – Round 3, 2019

U12 – Bayswater vs North Ringwood Red

Our third game of the year saw us up against the top side, and last year’s Grand Finalists in North Ringwood. We knew the game would be tough, and the first quarter saw the bigger, quick players of North Ringwood beat us to the ball. Quarter time we found ourselves down 3.5. 23 to no score. I asked the boys then what they felt was going wrong.
“No talk. And we’re not getting in first”. Exactly what we thought.

Almost instantly, the boys switched their minds on, applied themselves, and completely changed the complexion of the game. For the next three quarters, superbly led by David on the ball, we fought hard, put our bodies in, and got first use of the ball. The result was three quarters of magnificent defensive football, holding North Ringwood to only 1 more point for the whole game, while scoring 4.6 ourselves.

Great efforts by Chad, Toby and Peppers up forward and Jackson and Owen down back, with Jamie and David providing their usual 100%. A superb team effort and a great way to celebrate Joel’s 50th game for the club – well done Joel. Final Scores:

  • Bayswater 4.6.30
  • North Ringwood Red 3.6.24
