Review: The U15 C Netball
team played their best netball of the season on Saturday. Their passing
was fast passed and accurate, and the match was a joy to watch. At the
end of the second third, the score was very tight at 6-6. Sophia Arthen
and Tabby Temporal used clever strategies to make space in the D despite
some expert defending from Kimbolton.
Milly
Scarborough played amazingly well, as she continued to make defensive
interceptions throughout the game. She never dropped the ball and
reversed the direction of play several times. She won the well deserved
lady of the match. Unfortunately, in the final third, we lost our
stamina and Kimbolton managed to pull ahead to win 14-8.
Nevertheless,
the girls played some excellent netball and should be very proud of
their teamwork and obvious improvement since the beginning of the
season.
The
second match of the day was against Stamford. Annabelle Persie came on
as WA and immediately made her presence felt by using the space and
getting the ball into the D very quickly. The play improved and the
teams seemed to be evenly matched. Ellie Welsh was everywhere as centre
and played a pivotal role in the success of the match. By the end of the
first half, the score was 4-3 to Felsted. Felsted managed to keep
fighting despite some excellent attacking play from Stamford. Genevieve
Guest was an excellent Goal Keeper and prevented several shots from
going in. The girls were determined to win, and they did, with a final
score of 10-6. The winning drive was evident in the fast-paced play and
teamwork. A well deserved win!
