Norfolk Women's Over 50s Show Spirit at East County Tournament 2025

Published: 12 May 2025

An extremely keen group of Norfolk ladies took to the field at the County Tournament in Cambridge, where even the heat couldn't dampen their determination. Norfolk were lucky to have their number one supporter helping to manage substitutions on what turned out to be a sweltering day, ensuring smooth play and keeping spirits high. 
 
One of the standout moments was holding Cambridge, the eventual tournament winners, to a draw - a fantastic achievement that highlighted the team's resilience and determination. While they may have finished with the wooden spoon, the level of commitment and enthusiasm from every player was undeniable. The feedback from everyone attending was overwhelmingly positive, with players praising Norfolk for being inclusive and fostering a strong sense of community. 
 
The experience sparked a desire to keep building momentum, and our Chair, Paula Thomsen, is already looking ahead to arranging a tour and a few friendlies before next year's event.
