Croydon MO's Ladies teams had a rest week from their league campaigns but the Ladies First XI took on Horley in a friendly at Rose Hill and dominated play in a 1-1 draw.

Croydon spurned over 20 short corner chances and numerous opportunities from open play until Tessa Bullimore finally converted a chance.

But Croydon went to sleep at the back and one of only two touches of the ball Hopkins had in goal was when she was forced to retrieve the ball after the defence left her badly exposed.

The Ladies Second XI continued their incredible form as they won 2-0 against a Spencer team two leagues above them at a rain swept Russell Hill.

Catherine Bourke and Rachel Plumbstead both scored for Croydon.
