This week the 10/1’s played a strong West Ryde Rovers team who gave our Comets a run for their money! From the 1 ^st Quarter they came out strong and scored 8 goals, keeping us scoreless. The Rovers shooters were tall and very accurate and although our defenders tried hard to intercept and catch the rebounds, they did not miss many goals.

The 2 ^nd Quarter was our strongest today and Elicia and Tanisha both scored a goal, the Rovers only scored 3 goals this quarter with some much better defending and stronger passing by our girls.

The 3 ^rd quarter saw our girls keep fighting to get the ball and intercept, with some great movement by Genevieve, Jyothi and Mandy in GK,GD and WD. Skye scored 1 goal and Elicia 2/ Rovers 6 for the quarter. Our Centre passes are improving and Alanah did some lovely setting up on the goal circle to help out our shooters and defenders. Unfortunately today we had the odd toe on the line for throw- ins and too many held balls. We will be working on this at training and continuing with our fitness training.

Tanisha scored 1 more goal for Comets in the last quarter with the final score 23/6 to Rovers. Pam and I were really proud of the girls today for keeping their fighting spirit up and never giving up! Well done everyone. Remember our club motto is T.E.A.M (Together Everyone Achieves Magic!) and we will keep improving every week!

Our Captain today was Genevieve. Tanisha was awarded our McDonald’s Sports Award for 3 strong quarters as GA and moving into spaces nicely. Skye was awarded the MVP Award (Most Valuable Player) by the other team, playing a full game today as WA, GS and C.

Next week we play St Kevin’s on Court 1 and Tanisha will be our Captain and can bring fr uit or a treat for after the game.
