ICT’s Mary Peteranna, who hailed the passing quality of the team, told ICT media: “It was maybe a bit of a weaker team than we would have liked for our first match but we all got stuck in.
“We have a really strong midfield, with some great attackers and our defence is strong with a great goalkeeper. We all pulled together to show the potential that we have.
“It was a great start to the season and gives us a lot of confidence going ahead. We just want to move from strength to strength this season.”
