The U12C’s are really starting to gel together as a team and they were playing some lovely netball today against Mayfield. We dominated from the start so decided to mix up positions for the rest of the match, to make it a fairer match against Mayfield. Cora and Gracie’s shooting is really coming along, their accuracy has been excellent the past two matches. They are also getting better at shooting from further out. Jess is a steady centre, who drives forward for the ball well and is always trying to lose her opponent before the pass. Mabel (WA) was helping connect centre and the shooters and was moving into space well.. She was great at receiving the ball on the circle edge, then feeding the shooters. In defence, Amara, Lily, Anna and Perla. They had a lot of chances to tip/intercept the ball today, but it was also great to see how well they were marking their players (stage 1 and stage 2). This made it really difficult for their opponent to throw an accurate pass. The best thing about this match was how kind and understanding the girls were with the Mayfield team, who didn’t have much experience of playing netball. It also gave our girls the chance to play in different positions that they may light to try out in the future.

Player of the match – Mabel

Coache’s player – Gracie – your shooting has improved so much and your footwork too!

Highlight of the match – how well everyone was defending as a whole team, there were so many interceptions and turnovers
