Basingham v Welton S&SC Reserves
The Reserves latest pre-season outing saw them take the trip to Division 1 side Bassingham. After a bright start Welton took the lead inside 5 minutes. They soon added a second, before Bassingham managed to pull one back. The rest of the game continued at a canter for the Reserves who easily by-passed their opposition with some slick football. The pick of the goals coming from young Steve Smith.
