Forward and short corner striker. Off pitch skill is the ability to beat Debs Smith in the shower race (?).

Sam Jelliff

Hannah Austin

Shelly Garrod

Charlie Hemmant

Former UEA player, rowing mad, typical GK - don't mess with me!

Subjects her team to the Gunners a very vocal player who inspires her team, models herself on Arsenals no. 14.

'Beater' is the true Norfolk dumpling whose boundless energy wears the rest of us out. Always in the right place at the right time.

Lizzie Moulton

Rachel Suckling (v-cpt)

One of the midfield generals who never stops running, kept elastoplast in business last year.

Party girl, fines committee member who styles her game and looks on Real Madrid's no. 23.

Another Union recruit from UEA, a left side whiz who causes the opposition defence havoc.

Plays when she hasn't got her hands on burly men's legs!.

Ali Gunton

Claire Baker (cpt)

Marie James

Helen Ledger

'Taff' has a habit of scaring the oppositions keepers (and her own at training), another player who kept elastoplast in business. Injury forces absence.

Defender who in addition to taking opponents out is known for falling through front doors after beer festivals!

Rachel Miles

The other midfield general who does like to drift to planet miles, when not being the socialite Tara Palmer-Tompkinson - the evil fines committee member!
