1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 She plays the ball wide.
and is never offside.
She’s always in space,
got a nice turn of pace.
She’s good in the air
loves it played square.
She’s first to the ball
and first in the wall.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 push it, push it, push the ball wide.
knock it, knock it, knock the ball square.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 If she wants it she’ll scream
she’s an asset to the team.
She’s got such a good turn
and is very quick to learn.
She plays it to feet
and is very hard to beat.
She always calls a name
and really enjoys her game.
