One Final Game, One More Fight: Corby's Curtain Call

And so, we arrive at the final curtain of the league campaign for Corby Town U15 Girls, a season that has dazzled, delighted, and delivered in abundance. One last hurdle awaits, and it comes in familiar colours. Stotfold Turquoise. The two sides meet for the fourth time this season, with Corby boasting two wins and a pulsating 2-2 draw the last time out.

The champions, yes already crowned, step out knowing their title is secure, but make no mistake, this is no dead rubber. There’s pride, records, and the small matter of a potential nine-point gap at the summit to play for. The motivation? As strong as ever. The opposition? Determined. Stotfold still have business of their own to settle. A result here would cement a third-place finish and they’ll be desperate to spoil the Corby party.

There’s an air of ambition around Corby’s attacking trio, with individual milestones looming large. Leila, the talisman, needs six goals to reach a remarkable 30 for the season. It’s a mountain, yes but if anyone has the boots to climb it, she does. Lilly-Ella sits just four away from the 20 mark, with Lilly-Mai hot on her heels needing five. Expect the front line to come out firing.

At the other end, Corby’s rearguard will be aiming to maintain their miserly average just 0.8 goals conceded per game. A wall built on discipline, resilience, and unity. They’ll need every ounce of that against a Stotfold side that knows how to ask questions.

And let’s not forget, next weekend brings a cup final. One eye, perhaps, might drift ahead. But they can ill afford to lose focus now. Stotfold are more than capable of crashing the champions’ celebration.

So here we are. The final chapter of a glorious league season. Corby Town U15 Girls, already legends of this campaign, have one last opportunity to write their names a little deeper into club folklore.
