Ladies 1st XI Win Investec Women's Trophy Final
The Investec Women's Trophy final saw Tulse Hill & Dulwich take on Oxford. In a closely fought first half Oxford just edged the run of play with some good chances seeing them rewarded with two penalty corners, which they failed to convert. The first half ended in stalemate at 0-0.
The first goal of the game came early in the second half with Tulse Hill & Dulwich's Clare Corbett scoring from open play in the 38th minute. Oxford then began to enjoy the majority of possession with some good chances and two penalty corners but as in the first half they struggled to capitalise. Tulse Hill & Dulwich looked dangerous on the break and with 10 minutes to go Gemma Nurse converted a penalty corner to make it 2-0.
With six minutes to go Oxford replaced their keeper with a kicking back, to go 11 outfield players and the move paid off with Oxford's Kim Haynes firing home from close range. It wasn't quite enough however and Tulse Hill & Dulwich held on to take the final and lift the trophy.
