“Very sunny weather all game affected the Soul Splitters normal passing style of play. Took a 2-0 lead by half time through a well worked TD early in the first half, even though Bekka fell over in the end zone after tripping on a GFI. The second TD was captalising on an Amazon mistake and moving the ball quickly away to a waiting line elf, who ran it into the corner of the TD zone with the help of some blocking holding up the Amazon persuit.

The second half was defending all the way and the Amazons survived an early blitz on their thrower whilst she was still in the backfield. Another fumble further downfield gave the Soul Splitters another chance to score but Eluar fumbled the ball due to the sun. That would have been a guarenteed TD for sure had the pass been accurate. Despite this setback, the Amazons recovered in a period of scrappy play and scored in turn 5. That left a n exciting final quarter to the match, in which the Amazons nearly clinched it. Pressurising Utaka deep in his own half paid off and characteristically he fumbled the throw, which would have set up another TD and sealed the game. Despite this error, the Soul Splitters managed to hold on to the win, for only the 2nd time in their history!
