COULD ECU Joondalup women’s football team go through an entire season without conceding a goal?
So far, so good.
Seven rounds into the 18-game women’s division 1 season the girls have scored 32 times and conceded … well, they have not conceded any.
It is little surprise that goalkeeper Astrea Walker recently accepted a scholarship to play for a college in the US next year.
This is the same team that took all before it in the under-17 competition last year, scoring 140 times and letting in just 12 goals.
It forced Football West to shift the team to a higher league.
Coach Adrian Kenny said it was still a young team with all players aged between 14 and 18.
The second-placed Leeming Strikers were their latest victims.
A 5-0 win on Sunday has ECU Joondalup on top of the table by five points, with a game in hand on most other teams.
