Bromsgrove Ladies' First XI 1 Droitwich Spa Ladies' First XI 1

BOTH Droitwich and Bromsgrove are performing well in the league and the result of this derby may mean they will be competing against each other for points later in the season.

Droitwich seemed an altogether different side and were solid in defence, midfield and attack.

They moved the ball around with ease and deservedly took the lead on the stroke of half time following a fumble in the D.

Spa continued to lead for most of the second half until Lyndsey Hyde grabbed the equaliser.

Bromsgrove missed Ang Gibson's goal scoring ability, although new first team addition Helen Moore was strong in defence and cut out much of the left-sided attack.

Player of the match Nicky Bayliss was also awesome in defence and fielded much of the play in midfield. Bromsgrove had several scoring opportunities from penalty corners, with Becky Southwell narrowly missing a flick and Donna McGettigan unfortunate to send one wide.
