Ashford Scorers:
Gillian Clegg (2), Gill Waite, Kirsty Boxell
Starring in the club’s first fixture of the 2006/07 season, the Ladies 4th XI travelled to play Eastcote in their first Division 3 match. Starting with a good pace the Red and Black’s were 2-0 up within 10 minutes due to acting captain Gillian Clegg scoring twice from short corners.
Defender Gill Waite then added a third, again from a short corner. As if a three goal lead wasn’t enough to take at half time, Ashford notched up their fourth in the dying minutes of the first half when Kirsty Boxell tapped in a good shot from Kim Downes.
Easing off in the second half the Red and Black’s allowed the home side to come back into the game, pulling back two goals over the course of the half but come the final whistle Ashford were still convincing winners. Newcomer Ashley Brewster was player of the match.
