Reading’s Alex Danson scored a double hat-trick in the
Investec Women’s Premier Division this afternoon when Reading put Olton &
West Warwicks to the sword. Olton were two down after only two minutes of play,
and although the scored was a relatively modest 0-4 at half time, it was the
second half that saw the home side collapse to lose the match 0-12.
Olton look like early strugglers in the Premiership with
zero points and 17 goals conceded in two games.
Sutton Coldfield are also looking for points after losing 1-3 at home to
Surbiton. Sutton Coldfield had taken a
15th minute lead thanks to Emma Macabe, who recently moved from
Olton, but Georgie Twigg scored from the penalty spot ten minutes later. Second
Half goals from Vicky Bryant and Becky Herbert finally sealed Sutton’s fate.
Beeston’s second match in the Premier Division ended in
disappointment when they went down to a Zoe Leach penalty stroke after 40
minutes away at Clifton. Final score
there, 1-0.
Canterbury have a late start, playing at home to Birmingham University. Until we know that result, the only team to have taken maximum points is Bowdon Hightown. Bowdon were away to Leicester, and a Natalie Wray penalty corner give the visitors a 0-1 win.

overcame Ben Rhydding 1-0 at home.
