Aces 48 – 35 Lodge Park Violets
Aces last game of summer season ended in another fabulous victory with a score of 48-35. It was very fitting that it beautifully displayed some of the main elements that Aces, as a squad, have tried to work on this summer season including circle rotation, mental strength and bringing the ball down court through the different channels.
Every individual in this Aces squad this season has shown enormous hard work and commitment to training and it really has paid off with everyone having grown as a player which could be seen in this last game. Chloe E at GS and Grace T at GA displayed just how far they have developed their circle rotation and understanding of each others positioning, along with some accurate shooting, was lovely to watch. Izzy, Sarah and Chloe H at C and WA helped bring the ball down court and showed a variety of feeds into the D, keeping the opposition defence guessing and always being available for the reset options was lovely to watch. Izzy being the positive princess that she is on court has really helped Aces this season with keeping everyone calm and motivated and keeping their heads throughout the game. In defence Leah, Katie and Grace C helped bring the ball down court and feed into attack but also made our opposition have to keep trying to work the ball around with tight marking and many interceptions putting them under pressure throughout.
Overall it was a great game had by everyone and the result meant that Aces finished summer season as WINNERS! Well done to Grace T for getting captains player today for beautiful movement around court and in the D and fabulous shooting accuracy!
