Bradford secured their best game of the season so far with a dominant 7-1 victory over a strong Harrogate 3s side, proving that high spirits and a high-octane press make all the difference, even after a long drive. In the intense first half, centre half Bhavan expertly coordinated the team's tight press, eventually leading to a deserved 2-0 lead despite Harrogate's relentless wing attacks and great saves from Danny. After inspirational words at the break, Bradford came out even stronger in the second half, where their undeniable team chemistry and tight positioning overcame Harrogate's brute-force approach. The team turned dominance into goals, securing short corner after short corner and seeing the goals flood in after Harrogate briefly scored, effectively breaking the opposition's spirit and turning a strong side into an average one. The victory was bolstered by standout performances from Ben Barber and Joe Barber, cementing the massive win.

Mens 2s

Bradford Men's 2s delivered a composed and confident performance, dominating the flow and possession of the game but ultimately settling for a 0-0 draw away against Wakefield 5s. Driven by the early running power of George, Woody, and Nathan, Bradford controlled the first half but lacked a cutting edge. Following a challenge at halftime to be more direct, the 2s turned up the pressure in the second half, earning a string of penalty corners. The defence was disciplined enough that goalkeeper Bob had little to do, but the breakthrough proved elusive, with George hitting the post on the closest attempt. Despite the best efforts, including Ollie moving up to an attacking role, they were denied the win solely by an inspired performance from the Wakefield goalkeeper and a frustrating lack of a finishing touch.

Ladies 1s

Despite being significantly outnumbered with only six players against Ben Rhydding's ten, the Bradford Ladies put in a heroic and highly spirited performance. The team, adapting by playing half a pitch and 7-a-side, showed immense determination throughout the game's four quarters. Goalkeeper Nimrit proved a rock in defense, partnering seamlessly with Seren, while Amelia relentlessly launched attacks. After a motivational half-time talk and borrowing a player, Bradford stormed the second half, with Emma slotting home the first goal and Amelia finding her mark for the second. Erin shone on the wing, weaving through defenders, and although they ultimately fell 6-2, the team's grit—highlighted by Kate's charge on goal that resulted in a black eye—ensured everyone left the pitch with smiles, bruises, and plenty of pride.
