Locks Heath 3 Ludwig Leisure 1










My first Hampshire Premier League game saw me at Locks Heath, near Fareham in Hampshire.



In thruth it was quite an entertaining game that Locks Heath should have won more convincingly. Locks Heath playing in red took the lead through a penalty which was comfortably converted. Building on from this they doubled there advantage with a nice goal drilled in from the left past the driving keeper. Ludwig then pulled one back in what i think was there first meaningful attack, lobbing the keeper nicely as he came rushing out. The score remained 2-1 at half time even though Locks Heath should have been out of sight by this stage. Ludwig put up a bit more fight in the second half however to no avail as Locks Heath scored a 3rd to effectively kill the game off.






The ground is one of only 3 in the Hampshire Premier League that currently has floodlights and there is potential for more. The attendance for this fixture varied as the match continued as there is no access control or admission fee. The club house is situated away from the pitch over a cricket strip, as are the changing rooms.
