 County Cup Quarter Final  Sunday 18th November 2001 Blues 6  v Billesley 0
With Blues attacking the goal furthest from the clubhouse in the first half it was the Billesley keeper who was called into action as early as the first minute when she turned a Marie Ballard shot around the post after good work from Leanne Griffin down the left.
The save was even more impressive due to the fact that not only did she stop it but that she held on to a very well struck shot that seemed destined for the Blues net.
Amy Bradley who was having a very good game on the right did not have to break her stride as the ball arrived at her feet and her first time well struck effort gave the goalkeeper no chance as it finished in the bottom corner of the net.
