Welcome to Norbury Lacrosse Club

Junior Flags Semi Victory!

Friday 5 March, 2010

Norbury 12 – 3 Timperley A

Norbury came back from 3-2 down at half-time, winning the 2nd half 10-0 to beat Timperley A 12-3 at Wacs on Sunday. Timperley took advantage of 2 man down situations to take a 2-0 lead before Norbury pulled one back at the end of the 1st Q. The 2nd Q took on a similar style with the teams drawing 1-1. The 2nd half was a different prospect all together with Ian Cordwell keeping a clean sheet; Norbury found their shooting boots and by the end of the 3rd Q the game was all but over. The lads held their nerve and continued to play with passion throughout the 4th Q.

Norbury 6 - 5 Boardman & Eccle

Tuesday 29 September, 2009

Norbury 6 - 5 Boardman & Eccles

Q1: 2-1

Q2: 2-2

Q3: 1-0

Q4: 1-2

Low scoring thriller to start the season off under perfect conditions for lacrosse at Norbury.

Both defences played well in this evenly matched game, Boardman fought back to draw level in the 4th quarter dominating time of possession but Norbury scored the winner on a fastbreak with their only shot of the 4th quarter.

Norbury Goalie Ian Coldwell made some clutch saves especially on Man down in the last quarter to keep Norbury in the game.

Pete Green (LSM) did a great job for Norbury marking Boardman's England U19 player Max Leonard holding him to 2 points (1,1).

Greg Bennett top scored for Boardman & Eccles with 3 points (2,1) followed by John Grubisic 2 pts (1,1) & Chris Brown (1,0)

Craig Bennett (Wales) Top Scored for Norbury with 5 Goals (5,0), with Steve Pigeon (1,0) & Adam Woods (Wales) 4 pts (0,4)

Boardman out shot Norbury 36 - 24

Lots of handling errors as expected in first game of the season but the game was played in good spirits through out refereed by Tony Nugent & Rory ? (reffing his first ever game). It was a competitive game right to the end played at a fast pace and a good game to watch.

Great start to the season, if only all the games could be played in this weather.
