The perfect weather for netball...

It was perfect weather for netball, calm and still and pleasantly mild in Devizes. We met Wessex Sabres, a young team but with years of experience playing together.

Wessex Sabres got off to a great start, their attack was strong scoring 15 goals to our 1 in the first quarter. We kept our positions for the second quarter and kept heads held high scoring 2 great goals to Wessex’s 10. At halftime we regrouped and made a few changes, Harriet came off and Layla came on, we only conceded 8 goals in the third quarter and 11 in the fourth, with a mighty 3 goals scored.

Breanna deservedly won player of the match for her excellent play as GK and GD. Also of note was Charlotte’s super interceptions. Harriet’s snatching of the ball. Emma and Bea’s beautiful goals. Layla and Beth’s superb ability to find space. And Claude the dog's support from the sideline.

As always it didn’t feel like the score reflected the match. Onwards and upwards, roll on next Tuesday! Sx
