Junior A’s started off with a strong 14-0 win over Trinity. This was followed by a nail biting draw against Merbein. Our next match against St Josephs was a disappointing 1 goal loss but our last game was the best of the day, defeating the eventual winners Red Cliffs 12 goals to 8. Overall we came second for the day, which was an excellent effort. Best players on the day were Brooke Hards who intercepted countless balls and was the main driving force in the mid court, Shakara Delcastegne was very accurate in goals and the defence combo of Louisa Stephens and Paige McLean made it difficult for any of the opposing teams to penetrate. Well done girls and hope we go one better next year.
The girls played well and were willing to play in any position allowing for stronger combinations, however were beaten by all, except for Merbein, where the girls won by 2 goals. Thanks to the girls who offered to score on their game breaks, much appreciated. Claudia Fangaloka, Eve Kellet and Gemma Moiler were most consistent across the day.
The Inter A’s played four games coming away with one win, a draw and two losses. All girls showed good determination and sportsmanship throughout the entire day and put up a good fight against tough oppositions. Kendall McLean was very strong in defence, with Courtney Ransome driving it through the mid court. Consistent goaling by Courtney Orwell and Megan Hammond ensured the girls were competitive in all matches.
We started off on the back foot, losing a couple players leading up to the day due to injuries however we were able to put 8 players on to the court on the day. Unfortunately we dint come away with any wins on the day, but the girls did enjoy themselves. Thank you to Amelia Hill who was my assistant and official scorer for the day. Best Players: Maddison Sparrow and Tarsha Hawley.
