Albion Powerchair enjoyed an unbeaten start to the Slater and Gordon Premiership last weekend.
The Baggies picked up nine points from a possible 15 as they claimed two victories and three draws on the opening weekend in Nottingham.
 
      Albion began the weekend with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Middlesbrough. Captain Chris Gordon stole a Boro free-kick midway inside the opposition half, leaving forward Brad Bates to stroke home for the only goal of the match.
A tight encounter with long-term rivals Aspire PFC followed, resulting in a goalless draw with the soon-to-be league leaders.
The Baggies were held by Newcastle United Foundation in the final game of the day, with neither side able to get on the scoresheet again.
 
      Sunday’s matches began in the same way that Saturday finished. Greenbank were the next to keep Albion’s attacking forces at bay – holding the five-time champions to a 0-0 draw.
The weekend finished more positively, though with the Baggies romping to a 6-2 win over Muscle Warriors in their final match.
Matt Gilbert grabbed a hat-trick, while Ollie Rock also scored twice, Bates also continued his strong start to the season with his second of the weekend.
Albion Throstles were also in action across the weekend, securing six important points thanks to wins over Sevenoaks and Middlesbrough. Their wins were largely helped by Abigail Bolt, who won the Swizzels Unsung Hero award for gameweek one.
Albion: Gordon (c), Bestwick, Christer, Rock, Gilbert, Bates, Inel.
