This Sunday (12 March 2023) sees Guildford Thunder's first team play it's final crucial games of a hard-fought and successful season.
A win and a draw against Southampton City Spartans first and second teams would see Thunder top the OKL division 1 and seal a place in the promotional play-offs to the regional league. Spartans teams have struggled this season, occupying the bottom two league positions, with Spartans 2 yet to record a win this season. Between them, they've racked up 206 goals - which is identical to Thunder's season goal-tally. Three Guildford teams, four matches There'll be an early start for the second-team, Storm, as they face Southampton University's first team. Last time out, Storm nabbed a narrow 8-5 win at home. A win would all-but guarantee Storm finishing in the top 4 spots in division 2 south. Third team, Lightning, will also face SU1 and hope to put in another convincing performance to further prove the development squad are already formidable in their first half-season. Celebration or commiseration Whatever the results, all are welcome for drinks at the nearby Balmoral Beefeater, as a reward for an early start and a long day! |
