The Roses arrived at Whetstone Athletic for an afternoon kick-off with the bare eleven, a consequence of Easter Holidays, a later kick off and general unavailability. Whetstone currently top of the league and had only been defeated to the undefeated Ashby Ivanhoe so we knew it was going to be a tough game. We set out cautiously to try and pack the midfield and changed from our most recent formation to something new to accommodate availability in certain positions. The game st

The Roses were without Lily, Sophie, Kiri and Lauren against a strong side in Anstey Nomads where we put in our strongest performance of the season last time out. The game was pretty even which was reflected in the first half stalemate, both sides had chances but Lyla made some strong saves for the Roses as did her counterpart at the other end for the Nomads, our best chances came through Chloe G and Ellie who couldn’t find the back of the net on this occasion. A worrying

After a lengthy six week lay off due to bad weather, cup rearranged fixtures and teams folding the Roses finally had a Sunday morning fixture. The Roses were without Esme , Lauren and Evie for the match and usually after a period without games the Roses struggle but in this match they started well, without instruction to, the team passed the ball well and looked dangerous in attack. Sophie made a good run forward with the ball and just as she did later in the game played a

The Roses faced Anstey Nomads for the first time in league competition, only previously playing against one another in an end of season tournament. A good venue for football at Loughborough Grammar School and the pitches held up well from recent rain. A good warm up followed with a detailed team talk and an honest conversation about the effort required, the Roses had a full squad to choose from. It was a strong start from the Roses with Anstey testing a few balls through but

The Roses were back after a month off with Christmas break and bad weather meaning cancellations in January. Missing Evie through illness, the Roses had everyone else available for this match against Rugby Town, a contrast to last time we played when we were short on numbers and lost 5-1. A similar pattern to our previous game where Rugby started the stronger and the Roses were behind, 2 goals down inside the first ten minutes this time. The first a shot from outside the box

A strong year for the Roses which started with a defeat to Coalville and ended with a win against Epworth, the team has navigated a promotion and a County Cup semi-final in that time. On a cold but sunny morning in Newbold, the Roses took their own warm up getting ready for the match. Struggling with illness and absence, the Roses were missing Lenna , Esme , Sophie and Chloe B but still had 12 available. Additionally Chloe G was struggling with a foot injury and Caris als

After some challenging games against Nuneaton Borough, Rugby Town and Epworth Forest we had near a full squad available against GNG with Lily and Beth the only absentees. A rare afternoon kick off with the Roses wearing their new Fuchsia Away Shirts sponsored by One Communication Solutions Ltd. U15 Roses Away Kit The ask from the Coaches was to try and pass the ball, in recent games when under pressure we have been clearing the ball without any plan on keeping possession. It

The Roses faced Epworth in the League Cup, just several games after their 2-2 draw earlier this season. The Roses were missing Kayleigh , Esme and Poppy which would pose some defensive challenges in the full back area. We opted to change formation to try and cover those areas and compact centrally whilst maintaining two upfront. We defended valiantly but posed little threat going forward, generally relying on self made opportunities through Chloe G and Ellie . Evie and Ki

The Roses were missing Ellie , Evie , Katie , Lily and Poppy for this match. An early KO in Rugby, a roadblock on the A5… it felt like it might be one of those days in the winter chills at Butlin Road before we even got there. The Roses started well but after 10 minutes Rugby scored with an unfortunate deflection off a Roses defender from a powerful shot which left Lyla with no chance. 1-0 quickly became 2 when a cross found the lively Rugby Town winger who finished high i
