A nervous start by all for the first game of the season. Bournville started very well but Old Hales push down the right handside resulting in some early pressure with several short corners conceded. Bournville recovered very quickly John Sharpe tacking a hit just inside there 25, a quick pass to skipper Darrell Shaw who slapped the ball into the D for Gareth to push it into goal. Old Hales applied the pressure and scored two goals just before half time.
Second half Bournville defended very well but unfortunately Old Hales scored from a short corner 15 minutes into the half. Bournville pushed hard for a second goal In the last 15 minutes.
A tough start to the season but 100% by all. Final result Old Hales 3 - Bournville 1
