Last weekend the U15 returned to the outdoor competition, maintaining their unbeaten record. The Casuals started the game with one player short and half of the team away due to school holidays. As a result they were trailing 1-3 against Belenenses Ladies at the interval, their only goal coming from a short corner struck by John Harrison. However, the Casuals came back strongly in the second 30 minutes with a goal apiece from Vicente Mourão, from a short corner, and Michelle Green with a tip in, combining with John. John then showed his increasing maturity as a player, presenting the audience with 2 amazing field goals combining with Vicente both times. Belenenses got one back, but John converted a penalty stroke in the last minute to make it a 6-4 win for the young sun warriors.
