On Wednesday our men’s 1st team hosted the last game of the year, a Hampshire league game against the Basingstoke team. After a semester of victories, a last win was the best ending imaginable. In the start of the game our team was attacking the shallow end. Our lads started with confident attacking and consistent defending that led to no goals being conceded.
