Match Report:

This was a very good way to finish the season against strong oppostion. The first quarter was keenly fought with the shooters struggling to get free from their opposite players, made worse by Harriet's leg injury, which left us trailing by six goals. The second quarter saw a change round in the order as Rebecca Lawrence moved from defence to shooting. Mid-court play was fast and it was good to see the girls using their intercepting and marking skills to match those of Uppingham. However, by the third quarter we were trailing significantly but the girls kept their heads and they were determined to win the last quarter, which they did by several goals. Praise must go to all of them for their continued efforts and, despite the loss, it was a great winning quarter with which to finish the season. Well done!
