A 17 goals to 12 victory for The Good, The Dad, and The Ugly saw them swap places with Pro Team and move to 3rd in the table - on goal difference. Pro Team are leaking like a sieve at the moment - having let in 54 goals in 6 weeks. Both teams are going to have to do better on the field to improve their league place - or fill in their Health and Parenting Activity forms!
Next weekend sees the 'top of the table clash' between Old Guns and Team Dad - the last time these two met was the first match of the KickStart season resulting in a 15 - 15 draw. A win for Old Guns will establish a 6 point lead; it's up to Team Dad to haul them back...
A combative performance by The Good, The Dad, and the Ugly could not overcome the youth, speed and skill of a 'young' in form Old Guns team who leapt into a commanding lead before The Good, The Dad, and the Ugly could hit back. 7 goals in reply were not enough and the result was never in doubt - The Good, The Dad, and the Ugly 7 - Old Guns 22.
Old Guns head the table – but there’s a chance for all teams to earn points and push up the table – if players bring their completed Health and Parenting Activity forms with them on match days. Table Week 5
According to our on the spot reporter this was a great match - Pro Team taking a commanding lead before Team Dad reduced the difference to 3 goals behind at 16 - 13. Pro Team turned up the heat at the end - the final score 22 - 14. Well done Pro Team.
The league is still pretty tight at the moment - but teams can make a difference to their league place, if they return their Health and Parenting Activity Forms! A reminder will be sent out this week - and a new Activity Form.
Another reminder that for Pro Team and Team Dad players there's a chance to run off all the Christmas pudding this Saturday morning at GL1. If you can't make it please let us know via the contact details in the right hand column of this blog. Thanks.

Free Chlamydia testing and treatment in Gloucestershire!
Chlamydia is the most common sexually transmitted infection - it's estimated that as many as 1 in 10 young people carry this infection; the real downside is that it often has no symptoms - especially in men, and that it can do a lot of damage to your fertility - and that of any female partners if it is left untreated. The good news is that it is easily treated and that the test for it is free, simple and painless - usually nothing more than peeing into a plastic bottle, followed by a course of antibiotics if your test is positive.
