Match Updates
Here are some of our recent match reports from our CDNL and Fenland matches:
Ely 2: 72 - Falcons: 41
‘We saw Jo return to the fold in this match covering GD and with Emma in the defensive D the combination gave the Falcons shooters all sorts of problems. Backed up by Mel at WD for most of the match before Becky subbed for the last 20 mins of the game.
Vicki and Catriona dominated the attacking play and consistently feeding Emma and myself in the D allowing us to pop up goal after goal. Gaining momentum as the game progressed resulted in us racking up our highest goal tally of the season so far.
POM went to Emma D, very well deserved for persistent pressure and control in the D’
Ely: 22 - Witches: 56
‘Tonight we went up against a CDNL league 1 team. We only went and won one 1/4. Well played ladies, Mel took a beautiful intercept with two hands!! Megan, Jen and Jess shot some amazing, beautiful goals. Becky C and Karen T held strong in attack and defence. Last, but not least we welcomed Gemma D back on court after 5 years of being off. It was like she’d never been away.’
Ely 2: 41 - Thundercats 2: 33
‘So proud of how T2 played today!
Defence with Frances and Charlotte just shut down our opponents with loads of tips and intercepts, and with Mel and Emma under the post at various points, fought for every ball and every rebound.
Attack with Catriona and Vicki were feeding from all over the place with accuracy but with patience when it was required! Emma W was pinging the goals in from distance confidently despite defenders towering over her with me as back up to claim any rebounds and score a few myself.
Fantastic play in all areas of the court throughout the whole match despite a strong opponent! A well deserved and hard fought for result!’
