Still reeling from their exploits in Vietnam, the Chix could muster only four brave souls for their game against Jensonites in the Singapore Indoor League.
And so Gemma, Chris, Lauren and Lou gingerly, and somewhat lethargically, stepped onto the pitch to play against a full compliment of 10 young things including a keeper.
The Chix started brightly and were 1-0 up within seconds thanks to a link up between Chris and Gemma, started by Lauren.
Lou, Player of the Match, was superb in defence and kept the entire Jensonites front line at bay for most of the first half. The Chix conceded a penalty goal and 2 short corners but with Gemma's 2 additional field goals the half time score was 3-3.
Some canny tactics, combined with a team spirit still fizzing from the weekend and buoyed by determined support from Lauren and Chris, enabled Gemma to sneak 2 more in a tight second half without reply.
All four players were outstanding and they thoroughly deserved their 5-3 victory.
