Hillingdon Ladies finished a disappointing season with a comprehensive 8-0 win over relegated British Airways.

After a narrow 3-2 victory earlier in the season Hillingdon Ladies knew it would not be an easy 3 points and we needed to play well to finish off the season well.

Hillingdon started the game in frantic style, on a very hard, bouncy pitch the ball spent a lot of time flying from end to end. However, winger Kirsty Simmonds opened the scoring less than 10 minutes into the match with a cool finish past the on-rushing BA keeper. Her brace came in quick succession with another precise finish in the bottom corner of the goal to put Hillingdon 2-0 up.

After plenty of opportunities for Hillingdon and several excellent saved from the keeper, midfield engine Sarah Atkin added Hillingdon's third with a somewhat scuffed shot from the edge of the area, fooling the keeper and trickling through her legs.

Hillingdon went into the break 3-0 with Debbie Mason making an important save to deny a BA forward on an otherwise quiet afternoon in the Hillingdon goal. Hillingdon were also unlucky not to win 2 penatly kicks for obvious fouls on Simmonds and striker Robyn Goodwin.

Hillingdon started the 2nd half quietly, taking a few minutes to get going, but when they did boy did BA know about it. Simmonds once again wove her magic down the left wing leaving several defenders in her wake before fooling the last of these into pulling her down in the penatly area leaving the referee with no choice but to point to the spot. Captain Caroline Partrige stepped up and calmly slotted home her 3rd penalty of the season, keeping her 100% conversion rate intact.

Sarah Atkin capped her player of the match performance with a fantastic goal to put Hillingdon 5-0 in front minutes later, with a sweet strike from well out of the penalty area to lob the keeper and dip beautifully under the crossbar for her brace.

Goal number 6 came from forward Lou Kelsh, finishing low to the right of the keeper with a deserved goal to complete a battling performance. This was soon followed by a goal for her fellow striker Robyn Goodwin who produced an elegant touch just in the penalty area from a lofted ball from right back Hayley Lyon to fool the keeper and score a much coveted goal.

The rout was completed by an unfortunate own goal by a BA defender after one of Lyon's troublesome long throw ins to the penalty area.

A great perfomance to complete the season for Hillingdon Ladies, and a brilliant battle from front to back of the team. Well Done to Sarah Atkin who was voted player of the match, closely followed by Charlotte Grant and Kirsty Simmonds.

Apologies if I got the goals in the wrong order or if I didn't give you credit for an assist girls, if I'd have known we'd score so many I would've made notes!!

Team; Debbie Mason, Becky Payne, Caroline Partridge (c), Sophie Taylor, Hayley Lyon, Kirsty Simmonds, Sarah Atkin, Charlotte Grant (Amy 70), Holly Keeney (Kayleigh 70), Lou Kelsh, Robyn Goodwin. Subs; Amy Fry, Kayleigh Austin.

Hillingdon Ladies today confirmed their safety in Division One of the Greater London Women's League today after Flamingoes weren't able to field a team and therefore conceded a walk over on Easter Day.

This gives Hillingdon a much needed 3 points and guaranteed top flight football next season!!

Battersea and Wandsworth 1-1 Hillingdon Ladies

On a blustery afternoon on a really bobbly pitch and a terrible referee, a battered bruised and semi fit Hillingdon Ladies side earned a credible draw with league leaders Battersea and Wandsworth. Several players down and several on the pitch carrying injuries, Hillingdon’s game plan was to press the ball and try and play football on an almost impossible passing surface. Battersea made their intentions clear from the start, dominating the first 10 minutes possession but not actually troubling Lisa Byrne on her debut appearance as a goalkeeper!

The Hillingdon Ladies consistently pressed the ball and drove forward with promise, starting to assert themselves on the game and forcing the Battersea keeper into making some saves. Hillingdon worked hard to earn a corner and Sophie Taylor swung it into the mix from the right with Sarah Atkin towering above the Battersea defence and scoring from a header to make it 1-0 o Hillingdon Ladies.

Hillingdon then really took the game to Battersea creating plenty of openings down the wings but never really troubling the keeper but utilising space really well and were ecstatic with a great first half performance.

After the break Hillingdon knew Battersea would be eager to turnover the deficit and there was almost 45 minutes of backs against the wall defending from a resilient Hillingdon Ladies. The match report could not be complete without a mention of the terrible referee who missed some blatant handballs and some awful tackles, leaving Caz and Hayley in particular ridiculously bruised and swollen but still battling on.

Unfortunately Hillingdon’s brave resilience was finally broken with 10 minutes to go following a 3^rd consecutive Battersea Corner. Hillingdon then worked hard on not conceding again and nearly grabbed a late winner, with some excellent link up play from Lou Gilbert and Kayleigh Austin producing a good save from the keeper. Battersea continued to throw the kitchen sink at the Hillingdon goal but despite 4 minutes turning into what seemed like 20 they could not find a winner and Hillingdon were well worth their draw for a performance full of heart and constant working for each other like a true team.
