ROUND #12 Game Report (WOMENS): Hamilton Wildcats (3-4) v High Park Demons (8-0), at University of Toronto (Scarborough Campus), Toronto, ON.
This past weekend, the Hamilton Wildcats Women's team was set to face the undefeated high Park Lady Demons at Colonel Samuel Smith Park in Toronto, but due to a burst watermain, which flooded the Humber South oval, the game was moved to the University of Toronto (Scarborough Campus) only hours before game time.
Due to a last minute venue change, many of our supporters were unable to attend the Women's game, as it was moved from Etobicoke to Scarborough without much notice. According to all accounts, this was the best game that our Wildcats Women have played all season long. Hamilton dominated the first 3 quarters of play, and looked to have really caught the Demons on their heals with their speed and tenacity right from the opening bounce. This game was full of action from start to finish, and Hamilton looked destined to pull off a major upset versus the only undfeated side on the OAFL Women's ladder. Wildcats head Coach, Harley Graef, could not say enough about the level of intensity and passion the Hamilton women were playing with, and was beyond impressed with their determination to win. Despite playing only 9 per side, 12min quarters, on half an oval with no subs; it was Hamilton that looked to be the undefeated team on this day, but a questionable call by the umpire left Hamilton down a player for the entire 4th quarter. As Championship caliber teams do, the High Park Women took advantage of the extra player and eventually ran out winners on the day 4.7.31 to 2.6.18, not without a major scare by the visting Wildcats.
The now (3-5) Hamilton Wildcats Women will now head home this weekend to face the (0-6) Cental Blues Women's squad at Mohawk Sports Park on Sat. Aug 25th @ 10AM. This will be Hamilton's final home game of hte regular season, so please get out to support your local Women's footy team or come out to learn more about how you can become a part of our Club!!!
