Sunny but cold Dawson Park. With Katie Joss Coaching the Ladies 3's

With a squad of 13 the Grove girls took to the pitch wanting a win to go through to the Final with Captain Pat Lindsay giving them final team chat before the starting whistle.

Grove took the lead 2 mins into the Game with a goal from Kirsty Bett. Grove continue to put pressure onto the opposition getting a 2nd and then 3rd Corner but unable to get a clear strike at goal. Perthshire then drew level 26 mins into the game with a corner initially saved by Zoe but the ball managed to cross over the line. Half-Time Katie drew attention to some of the girls positioning on the pitch and to be more confident in the challenges for the ball. Pat also reinforcing this, and to go out stronger in the second half. Grove did just that and managed to get another 2 goals first from a corner by Louise Carroll and the next from Lucy Clarke in open play. Perthshire tried to press and get a goal back but Grove stayed strong and managed to get another goal with Louise hitting the backboard again from another corner just before full time. Grove win 4 -1 and with some really good play are now through to the Final of the Knockout Cup well done Ladies.
