Team Bath Buccaneers started this fixture knowing it was going to be a closley contested battled.
From the whistle Buccs applied pressure on the Cheltenham defence from some great play in the midfield by Jess Rickman, Rebekah Walker and Emma White but the forward line were just unable to convert any chances.
Just before half time the Buccs defence got caught with some poor defensive tackles and allowed Cheltenham a clear run through to score the 1st goal of the game past the Buccs keepers right handside.
Team Bath started the second half determined not to lose this game and were awarded a penalty corner for their efforts which Rosie Bennett converted with solid hit from the top.
The game remained contested throughout with both GKs having to make some good saves and either side unable to capitalise.
