DIAMONDS MATCH REPORT 20/10/24
The first quarter started strong with strategic positional play, and some great interceptions by Mary. The team managed to apply pressure to win possession of Ryland’s balls and then used them to gain advantage. Despite a lot of pushing from the opponents, Diamonds persevered.
In the second quarter, the opponents grew more feisty giving Edie and Georgina a fight to defend within the D, which they handled with conviction. In our attacking D, Chloe and Katie played the ball tactically between one another, as well as passing out to C and WA.
Within the third quarter, the shooters maintained accurate shots as well as always going for the rebound against some challenging defenders. Poppy M was consistently available for every pass in the centre court, and always stayed on the line for the attacking players to reposition themselves.
Finally, the last quarter showed how Diamonds have returned to usual form, with the whole team confident in playing their positions and working together. Poppy B worked seamlessly moving the ball up the court and passing in to the shooters, who showcased their talents with some excellent shots. Diamonds came away with a comfortable 45-24 win.
Well played everyone x
