PEN PICTURE

Having had a taste of playing in the first team, Dom is determined to get more of it as she enjoyed the experience so much.  Coming into the defence, she did not look out of place and her strengths of solid tackling and good running with the ball are put to their best use, whichever team she turns out for.  Although not the tallest of players, Dom is good in the air and passes the ball well, being able to pick out the best option available.  With a good 2002-03 season in the reserves behind her, the next season will be one of building on the experience gained so far.
