Den Bosch continued their awesome start to the women’s Hoofdklasse season with a 4-0 victory over SCHC, a result which punctured the Bilthoven’s 100% record in dramatic fashion.

Ireen van den Assem (pictured) took over the drag-flicking duties in the seventh minute to break the deadlock and it was 2-0 when Noor Omrani brilliantly robbed the ball to set up Lidewij Welten who smashed in from close range.

Van den Assem created the third along the left baseline and Omrani was available at close range to fire in again. Pien Sanders completed the success from the injection area from another corner.

Den Bosch now share the lead in the table with five wins out of five with AH&BC Amsterdam and HDM. Amsterdam were too strong for Kampong with goals from Michelle Fillet, Lauren Stam and Joy Haarman, 3-0.

HDM are the surprise package and they added to their early season form with a 2-1 victory over Bloemendaal.

HGC are another club enjoying a productive start to the season and they beat Victoria with South African star Dirkie Chamberlain continuing her personal goal-rush, netting in the 69th minute for a 3-2 win.
