Reigning champions National Sports Council (NSC) have made an emphatic start to the 2017 Barbados Football Association’s Women’s League.

After last Sunday’s opening of the season was put back because of the approach of Hurricane Maria, the NSC girls inflicted a 16-0 drubbing on newcomers Crane & Equipment Ellerton when the competition kicked off on Tuesday night at the Wildey Astroturf.

Shanice Stevenson, Kamillah Burke, Tianna Hackett and Kimberley Ellis all recorded hat-tricks, with the other goals being scored by Arial Grant, Patrina Brathwaite and Keinelle Johnson. Ellerton also contributed with an own goal.

It was a much more competitive affair on Wednesday night when last year’s runners-up Mavericks defeated ESFC Unity Stars 2-1. (BFA/HG)
