Gloucester 4
A NEW-LOOK Stroud made a positive start to the season against Gloucester in their first Severn 1.
They conceded three goals in the first half despite the defence of goalkeeper Ella Bullock, Claire Crosthwaite, Molly Combe, Sophie Payne and Lydia Wakefield saving over ten short corners, but three resulted in goals.
Stroud then found their attacking form and were rewarded with their own short corner.
Stroud held their own for the second half with good attacking play from Cordy King, but conceded a fourth in the last five minutes.
Star player: Cordy King.
