(Vicky Bremner photo) Blyth Thunder U14s travelled to Clinton to play their weekly soccer game on Thursday, June 11. The Thunder and Flash met for the first time this season for a great soccer match. Clinton gained ball control right at the top of the game and Blyth wasn’t prepared. They let the ball slip through their defence and were scored on in the first minute of the game. Blyth pulled it together and made some nice shots at the net, but couldn’t get the ball past the Clinton’s keen defensive line and keeper. Goalie Hunter Broda made a great save, but Clinton forwards were right there and scored on the rebound shot just before the first period ended. Thunder took advantage of a corner kick and Leendert VanDorp set the ball right in front of Clinton’s net. Forward Derek deBoer shot the ball. The play went back and forth with both teams making aggressive challenges for the ball, even stopping the game a few times. Clinton earned a penalty shot and scored the final goal of the game to win 3-1. “Although they lost, they played a strong game,” the coach said. “We were very pleased with their effort.” Thunder Flash clash www.wgcc.on.ca Wingham Golf & Curling Club Jamestown Rd., Wingham 519-357-2179 GG rr ee aa tt GG ii ff tt ss ff oo rr DD aa dd 25% off at The Pro Shop GG oo ll ff SS pp ee cc ii aa ll 9 holes $16 ~ 18 holes $22 Great place to come for all your team, work and family parties.
