Bridgnorth buoyed by their first victory
Bridgnorth will be keen to maintain their impressive start to the season when they travel to face Wolverhampton & Tettenhall on Saturday.
A deserved 2-1 success at home to Telford & Wrekin last weekend made it four points from a possible six in Midlands Division Three West.
Luke Pinches set the ball rolling when he fired Bridgnorth in front.
Andy Speke made it 2-0 from a short corner routine before Telford reduced the deficit.
“It was a good win against our main rivals,” said skipper Will Buxton. “Telford have gone from strength to strength in the last few years and it’s nice to see that we can keep up with them using local players.
“I think it was a fair result. I felt we were in control for most of the match and never felt like it was a game we were going to lose.
“Things are going pretty well, we had a strong 13 out on Saturday and team has gelled together well.”
The men’s seconds drew 3-3 at West Bromwich, while the third team won 4-2 at at Wolverhampton & Tettenhall seconds.
