Chipping Campden Ladies 2, FISSC 2

CAMPDEN Ladies, sponsored by Pyments of Campden, started their season with a home game against FISSC.

Playing with only ten players and without a regular goalkeeper, captain Sally Holmes volunteered to play in goal.

The first half was evenly balanced with plenty of end to end play. Campden's new player, Hannah Marshall, made many determined efforts down the left side to put Campden ahead but it was no score by half time.

Campden started the second half well and broke the deadlock with a well-worked side effort by Melissa Maxwell.

FISSC soon levelled but Sarah Bragg put Campden in front again as she chased a goal pass from Anghared Morgan and neatly slotted the ball into the goal.

FISSC again quickly cancelled out Campden's lead with another goal from Sue Maisey.
