Match report: Clubs v BDR Jets
What a great way to start the winter season.
To be honest with you all, it was a rough start getting back on court this morning. I hope none of the team minds me saying that I think we were all adjusting to the fresh start and change of venue. This was demonstrated by some sloppy passes that didn’t have quite enough height or strength behind them. There was also some rushed passes/overheads into the D which the defenders quickly cottoned on to and started to intercept. This, together with their GA being ridiculously good at shooting, meant we went into the second half being nine down.
HOWEVER… the tables started to slowly turn as we slowed down, started to use the width of the court and played the ball around the D more before passing to the shooters. As a result, we won the third quarter and going into the fourth, once we started pulling it back, there was just no stopping us.
Don’t get me wrong, we still have some work to do, with centre passes and just re-gelling a little but I am so proud of us for pulling it back as well as we did. Well done to everyone for keeping our heads high and powering on because it definitely paid off.
Bitter sweet though because unfortunately Lorraine did suffer an injury – on the first game back. So recover quickly please Lorraine 🤞🏼
Congratulations to Amelia who won player, had some great feeds and was just overall a powerhouse on court.
Let’s start as we mean to go on team 💪🏼💪🏼
