Wealden white vs Langton 7 – 38
The team struggled to move the ball down the court and in to the circle. Langton wanted the ball all game and challenged every move or pass the girls did on court.
The best quarter was the third scoring 6 goals. We started to drive for the ball and come in front of the players.
Work to be done at training this week.
Wealden Gold vs CDP Gems 22 – 40
The first half of this game was goal for goal with some excellent netball from all the girls. The GA for CDP was a key player but we had Amy and Rachel who did an amazing job all game putting pressure on any pass going into the circle and getting many turnovers or tips stopping the pass. Centre court worked tirelessly defending and attacking never giving up. We had a strong game in the shooting circle for 3 quarters of the game but lost focus in the last quarter only scoring 5 goals to cdps 11.
This was a highly contested game and I don’t feel the score is a reflection of how well the girls played.
Wealden Black vs CFX 13 - 18
Slow start to the first quarter to many bad passes and foot work calls we went down 3 goals. A couple of changes in mid court and in the defending circle we hoped to pull back in to the game. Some fast feet in the centre court and we are loosing the defence of cfx moving the ball down the court better. We struggled to get it in to the shooters so don’t make up any ground. Coach changes Abi and Lilly around in the circle and gives some pointers to the defence. Some excellent defence turn overs by Genre and Beccy and on target shooting we pull back to 1 goal. CFX come out hard in the last quarter and stop several passes making it into the shooting circle.

WEALDEN BLUE V CD PHOENIX LILAC
What a fantastic start to the game as the team were lead magnificently by Lucy Goodwin, Captain out on court for their warm up and
pre-match preparation. Unfortunately the first quarter didn't reflect the before match preparation leaving us with a 6 - 4 deficit to catch up on. With a heads up reminder to the on court defence saw Charlotte Neal take control turning the ball over and driving the ball out of defence to turn it around to a 9 - 8 lead. The third and fourth quarters were shared neck a neck with results of 6 - 6 and 5 - 5 ensuring that the 1 goal lead was sustained. Well done Wealden Blue a well challenged and sustained match. Special mention for Annie and Katie Moore for working on that feed into the circle, much improved and thought about, Lucy Clements for almost 100% accuracy on shooting and the two year 6 girls, Josephine Woodward and Chenade Herd for really showing how technical training is delivered in match play. Final score win 20 - 19 to us. Thank you for parent help Sandra Moore

WEALDEN RED V CD PHOENIX YELLOW
I am a firm believer that if you win the toss you start on a positive and if ever there was a need to do this today the Red team needed just that. Coupled with the fantastic warm up led by Captain Louisa Thomas with the support of her Vice, Jess Marden the team were up and raring to go before I arrived on court, well done. After the deficit of last week's experience the Reds were determined to show their metal and take the court hard. But it just wasn't going to be, the first quarter saw a 3 goal deficit to CD Phoenix losing 6 - 3. But resilience in all areas of the court, as well as the amazing interceptions of GK Chloe-Jane Fraser at least a head and shoulder below the height of the GS, showed our determination and the team started to turn it around winning the quarter 5 - 4 so only 2 goals down. A change to the shooting circle with Jess Wates as GA and Lucy Clements GS playing up from the Blue team combined with the ferocious interceptions by Jess Marden in the mid court saw a massive turn around and Wealden finished the quarter with a 7 - 1 result meaning we entered the final quarter with a 4 goal lead. Unfortunately as the game progressed we couldn't sustain the momentum but settled with a satisfactory 17 all result much commended by both sides, well done to all a lovely game of netball restoring our belief that the Red team really do have what it takes. Thank you Jackie Gerety and Sally Baker for your side line support, much appreciated.
