The Bombettes

Who are we? The Bombettes!
What are we? Thirteen chics playing soccer under the ailias of The Bombettes in an U/16 A Womens Division!
How long have we existed? Some of the team have been together awhile, others are just new. However, half of the teams origionals are still with us in our third year, '99.
Why the Bombettes? Well, the guys were called the Bombers and heck, we aren't guys!
Grandfinal/Semi's? Yep, both! Our very first game on a 'big' feild we lost 7-0 to Lilli-Pilli. A few months down the track we played that exact same team.. in the Grandfinal! We won. The following year we played them in the Semis, drew and went onto the next game-against the Bundeena Bitches! I got in a fight with one of them and my was it a great game! Sadly tho' previous point scores didn't agree and we drew the game. Bree & RachWe didn't make the G/Final. They won. This year, we've lost a few bad apples.. I mean, we actually fought our OWN team on the feild sometimes rather than the opposition! Soo it was good to loose the friction.. however the loss of our goalie was really, odd!! She left us for the team we'd beaten two years back, Lilli-Pilli!! My gosh is she regretting it! Her team lost their first game 10-nil? We drew 1 all, with me in goals would you believe!!

Games

Did I happen to mention that.. I SCORED A GOAL????!!! Yep Yep, even tho' the last few games weren't elligable for match reports because I was too lazy, busy and well, lazy, there was news to tell. That is, I scored whilest playing forward for the first time in.. four years! Keep in mind, it was the first time I ever had a chance to score, and well, look what happened! Amy and I got to play forward together and both scored, go us! Sadly though, the seasons done with, caput, gone, forever lost. Badluck us. Better luck next seson, I hope, eh! Bombettes still kick ass, go us!

Sunday, 11th July: Bay VS The Bundeena Bitches. WON 2-0!

Omigod Omigod Omigod! ...For the first time we actually beat the Bundeena Bitches fair and square and man were they pissed off!
Considering it was my birthday and we really didn't have much of a chance anyway, Rob let Amy & I play forwards! ..Goal-scorers! Remembering I've never been more than a goal-keeper or fullback my intire four years of soccer! It was..outrageously fun even if Amy was very possesive about it all and I was cornered into playing Goalie again in second half. It isn't really fair though, is it? I mean, not only was it my birthday.. but Rob says that other girls have had their fair share in goals, yet my fair share doesn't seem to ever come into account. The team relys on knowing I'll be there if no one else will. Anyhow, that doesn't matter!
During second half Amy had a champion effort, set up by Toyah, and scored a goal!! Renee scored the second one not long after leaving us in hysterics that we were actually beating the long-hated Bundeena Bitches!
Their fat chick came running down the center of the feild during second half.. right down the center and heaven only knows where our fullbacks were but thank God I saved the goal! I jumped.. cought it, fell, jumped again, landed on it.. and within seconds the fat Bundeena chick had kicked me strong and hard in the chest with her boot - aiming for the ball ofcourse...*grr* and then went for a fall herself! I was, understandably, majorly pissed off as I sat up with my eyes closed, yelled out to Wendy asking where the fat bitch was and threw the ball directly at her lard assed body on the ground! Now, maybe that wasn't such a great idea considering I could have scored a home goal as Amy is still pointing out.. but what fun is soccer without violence?!?! As she got up Wendy remarked something to the effect of 'Poor Rachel, that Bundeena bitch was soo fat!' which left the poor Bundeena Chick almost in tears - serves her right! No one kicks me in the tits and gets away with it, thankyou very much! Once again, we won, we won, we won, we won.. and I'm one majorly buggered sixteen year old member of the Bonnet Bay Wimons U/16s Soccer Team saying G'Night.

Tuesday, 6th July: Bay VS Menai. Lost 5-0

I don't give a rats ass what the f*&king, f*%cked, d^@ckhead of a referee Rach 99reckonz the score was, I had a marvelous game.. for a change! I tackled.. I gave out penalty kicks.. I slid on my face.. but got up to wack the ball down the side-line.. I stink, I'm freezing (..it was a 6pm night game in the middle of winter!), and in great need of a shower. I'm soo happy!
We played, for the first time in three weeks at the Rep Players feild on a Wednesday night which, to my knowledge, hasn't been done before!! I must admit my head was spinning soo fast from the chill of the air for the first half I thought I'd never make it through the second, but I did. Amy, although she was playing sweeper, spent most of the game with the forwards - or shall I say she spent most of the time saving the forwards butts? Menai's keeper touched the ball a whole two times during the game..! Twice! We really need a forward.. It wasn't a bad loss cosidering Menai are winning the comp'.. and we all know that playing with nine players never really works too well.
I won't speak for the rest of the team, but I will say this; Win or Loss - I had a great time.

13th of June: Bay VS Como-Jannali. Won..WON 4-0!

..and isn't it ironic.. I wasn't there to witness the win!! Yup, the first time since ..forever.. we won - to Como-Jannali again - and where was I? Camping.. in the snow.. with Benjeebum! So what did I miss? Ohh.. I dunno, Amy SCORING A GOAL IN THE LAST 5 MINUTES for the first time in three years! Must have been an awesome game to watch, and I missed it! Congrats Chicki's, unfortunatly we've got a long two weeks of no playing due to byes and state-cup! G'Luck.

6th of June: Bay VS Engadine. Lost 3-2.

Keeping in mind of our previous record this season, I think we pulled off a fairly Ok match! The score remained 2-all for most of the game, however, a slip up in defence *whoops* during the last five minutes gave Engadine the chance to score, and the little red-booted bitch took it! It could have been worse, keep in mind, remembering our last score against Engadine was a tragic 4-2! Atleast we can score against them? Anyhow, the highlight of the game, weather we won or lost, was that Lyndall- a friend of mine from work-came to watch the game!!! She arrived, after walking all the way from her own game to our feild, just in time to see me let the first goal in and have a fight with Amy! *Hmf* Fighting within our own team's another thing we have to loose! Anyhow, my turn as centre back proved alittle more useful and the other Rachael showed us just how good she can be filling in the goalie shirt!! *Applauds* A unanimous vote places her as our new part/goalie!! Goodluck next week!

30th of MaY: Bay VS Grays Pt. Lost-3.0.

This is quickly becoming an undesirable habbit! We need to win!! ..*sigh*. It's not that the opposition is too good, they're just fitter!! Half time, once again, we came off with a nil-all score.. and then we played - or shall I say watched - second half! I played goals the intire game and I'm sad to say I fumbled the second goal in... *sniff*. I'm soo depressed!! We really do have what it takes to be a winning team, all we need is inspiration and some fitness! ..correction, not some fitness, ALOT of fitness!! Oh Goodluck to us next week, it's against Engadine soo man, if we don't win..............!

16th MaY: Bay VS Bundeena. Lost-4.0.

8HHmm.. what to say? This better not be a re-acurring thing! We're trying second last in the comp with Jannali.. Jannali!! We slugged our hearts out the first heart, coming off with a nil-all draw at half time, and once again we heaaded back onto the feild too exhausted and somewhat.. lost for enthusiasm causing us to let down our defences - and let them score!! *sniff* Oh Gosh.. this is starting to become a very very..sad season. What ever shall we do??

9th Of MaY: Bay Vs Menai...Lost 6-nil

Let me begin by saying that since our first year of soccer, we've never lost to Menai. Never..Until Today. New editions to their team and substitutions from ours made way for them to break through our defence-or atleast what's left of our defence. Of our intire team this year, I'm the only remaining defence player since our first season left! Amy & Toyah were drafted into being defence as we gradually lost more and more key players. Today our defence was.. enforced with the help from Alison & Laura (Who wasn't soo HaPpY to be playing fullback I can tell you now!) Basically, Toyah was forced into goals and given the time she may have been kicking and screaming! I volunteered myself after around the 3rd goal scored for keeper but Coach Rob had other ideas in mind.
The first half, we kicked ass! We went off the feild, our heads held high in a nil-all position. No more than 3 minutes into the second half, Menai scored their first goal against us. We went downhill from there. Without mentioning names or positions, I will say that from that moment on, we went from being 13 proud Bombettes to 12 (Yup, 12) sore, bruised, grazed, sweaty, filthy sad escuses for a soccer team. Yep, we were fighting ourselves again. We turned into witches and began yelling at our own until the score was 6-nil and the Ref blew his wistle so that our sorry game was over-Thank God.

25th April: Como-Jannali Vs. Bay -Jannali Oval. Won! 4-2.

The first half was great soccer on our teams behalf, the second half.. was.. well...sad!! It has taken us a year and three Games to get back into the swing of our first years success, and hopefully that enthusiasm, passing, thinking, limited skill and fun will stick around the intire season! Brielle, as always, had a great game with some added Forward Support with Renee' playing her first ever game today as a Wing. She scored!! Can you believe it? What's horrible about that, is that Amy's been playing for three years and hasn't scored, while Renee was playing for 30 minutes before scoring! But we all know it's Amys turn next week!! Applauds go out to the intire team, I believe, for kicking Como-Jannali's asses fair and square on the soccer feild! We have a Bye next week, but the following weeks challenge against Menai should be quite an interesting game if we can keep ourselves together!
*BREAK* (Saw Varsity Blues Last Nite!)

Presentation

18th April: Engadine Vs. Bay -Home. Loss 4-2.

Where to begin?? Brielle and Rachael (Not Me, the other one!) battled through the whole game and I believe, had their best games of all 3 (For Rach) and 2 (For Brielle) seasons!! They were both tackled (alotta that today!) by the fat chic..*Gulp* but managed to control themselves enuff to fight back..in a less agressive way-most of the time! Toyah played goals the first half and did a pretty darn good job-she sure can kick alot better than our regular goalie *Errm..Me!* Rachel I had..a barry! *Sniff* Being soo unfit and generally P'ved off that we were lossing, I let in three goals! However, I managed to save a couple and in the process scored myself some nasty cuts and bruises especially up my right leg! *ouch* But, going onto our fourth game next week I hope we do better! GoodLuck Chickadee's!! Oh, and, sorry for my little outburst towards the end there.

11th April: Grays Pt. Vs. Bay -Away Game. Loss 4-1.

...Well! It was pissing down with rain, we were short four players (It's the middle of the Holidays!) and the ball weighed a ton ..However! It's come to my attention that everyone refuses to accept our escuses for why we lost such a sad game..! So, to wrap up this weeks report I'd just like to mention that being in goals was like taking a mud bath, attempting to take goal kicks was like kicking a medicine ball and Grays Pt. are stuck up &^%^$%^%^'s!!! But seriously, we were really pumped before and even after the game and had a ball.. so it doesn't matter we lost to the rotton...!!! Chloe showed an un-told skill taking over my spot in goals second half *Thanx!!* Amy got "Man" Of the Match! She saved my sorry butt alot of times, well deserved! Better Luck Next week!

4th April: Bundeena Vs. BaY (Us) -Home Game. Draw 1-1.

Being our first game we weren't expecting much, especially since Bundeena won our comp last Year.. *hmf*! I played goals the intire game, as our Origional Keeper decided to trade herself to the enemy-Lilli Pilli!! Alison, ofcourse, bailed us out by scoring the first goal and I'm proud to say they didn't get a ball in our net till the last quarter! I draws better than a loss, but a win would be even better for next week!! Toyah got "Man" Of the Match!!
