Queens rule over Jaguar Stars

Queens took on Jaguar Stars this morning and got lucky with the rain holding off 🙌🏼

We had a brilliant match and managed to keep things steady and controlled as much as possible (following a rushed first quarter) on a very slippery court!

The defence trio was hot, as usual, with Millie, Luc and Millie with flying interceptions, fast reaction rebounds and backing up in relentless centre court too.

Centre court play with myself, Millie, Katie and Gemma worked brilliantly with patient play and great offers throughout, and where the court and ball were so slippy today, there was immense teamwork in picking up someone else’s faults when the ball ran away from a player or slipped from someone’s hands.

But the main event this morning was our super shooters; Frankie, Amy and Gemma! The shooting was absolutely on fire today and the training and teamwork has come on in leaps and bounds since we started our first season together back in April. Jaguar defence didn’t stand a chance when Queens worked the ball quickly and effortlessly around to get almost every shot in the net.

A very well deserved player of the match was awarded to our very own Frankie, for unreal work and play at GA and GS, and your best shooting to date 👑 Well done and thank you Franks! You are invaluable on the court 💗

Queens walked away with a sky-high score of 55-21 💥⚡️✨💫🌟


Diamonds lose their sparkle towards the end

01/12/24 – Match report by Mary – player of the match

Diamonds vs Jaguar 2
With the scores neck and neck throughout the match, the win just slipped through our fingers in the last quarter so the end score was 39-27 to Jaguar.

In Q1 we started off in the lead with some amazing shots from Chloe and Katie, their rebounds were very strong here too. With Georgina out for this first quarter we borrowed a Queen Millie who played excellent as Keeper.
Q2 Here the jaguar defence got stronger which meant we had to work around the semi circle more which was easy with Eliza and Chiara making great offers and using the pockets well.
In Q3 Me and Georgina made the decision to double mark the shooter which provided effective as between us we made many interceptions. Georgina’s epic lean was able to put the attackers off too. Despite this, Jaguar were still in the lead.
By Q4 the score kept getting further away with more impressive passing from Jaguar which just got around our defence. We maintained the pressure across the court but it wasn’t quite enough.

Well played everyone, we will get them next time 💎❤️

Diamonds tame Panthers with a win

17/11/24 – Match report by Mary, Player of the match!

Diamonds vs Panters 3
We played a tense match against a bottom of the table team where the scores were fairly close. But we were still able to triumph!

Q1 was our worst quarter with lots of catches missed and weak passes made which meant Panthers were able to take a lead quickly. However, we managed to pull it back ending this quarter with a 6-6 draw.
Q2 was much better, after switching sides out of the direction of the sun, shooting was much more accurate. We were able to work the ball around the circle and gain lots of penalties through the Panthers GD and GK constant contact. Defence was strong too with Georgina’s excellent rebounds. We were able to get up to a 15-11 lead by the end of this quarter.
In Q3 and Q4 we continued to improve both defensively and at the attacking end as we were able to turnover the ball more quickly in rebounds and get more interceptions. Our ability to switch channels to create more space was really affective here. Despite the rocky start, we won 35-22!


Hearts tame Panthers 1

Hearts WON against Panthers 1!
50-43🏆🏆

It was a fun and energetic game against Panthers and we took an early lead. Our Centre, Rose, and WA, Jodie, both played up and were seamless in the team. They gave amazing feeds into the circle and great support bringing the ball up from many turnovers! Pippa, Kate and Laura were putting pressure on every pass in Panthers’ attack, of which many paid off and were converted to goals!

Some small errors from our side meant the score was fluctuating throughout the second quarter but a quick team talk sorted things out. We decided to slow the play with some more short passes as Panthers have always been great at reading overheads. This, combined with some better movement in the D from Molly and Lauren, meant the score was steadily increasing in the third quarter. We were having so much fun we forgot to play possession in the last quarter and have a bit of a rest!

Well done team💪 and 🏆 to Jodie for getting player!

Aces remove the sting from Blossomfield Bees

A tight first quarter had us in the lead by 2 goals as Aces got settled into the game.

As we got into our rhythm in the second quarter we extended our lead to a 10 goal difference setting the first half up nicely!

Some amazing movement around the circle by Chloe and Grace T which created options for Gemma and I to have strong feeds into the circle!!

In the 3rd quarter we capitalised on our momentum and the score was 39-22, this was due to great defensive work from Leah, Katie and Grace C who had amazing interceptions.

By the 4th quarter we were happy with how we played and wanted to keep the win by keeping possession and have a calmer quarter. Blossoms fought back, winning the quarter 10-7.

However with our stronger previous quarters the come back was too late and Aces took the victory 46-32!

Well played everyone great game 🎉🎉

Our Queens swept away BDR Sweepers on 03.11.24

OHHH what a wonderful morninggggg… for ATNC Queens, who faced BDR (previously our toughest opponent) and took a mighty, well earned win of 25-18 at the final whistle 🥳

Some all-round excellent play from everyone today – our circle defence combination of Millie and Lucinda was truly outstanding with countless deflections and intercepts, brilliant pressure causing the opposition to force errors and enabled the team to capitalise on what felt like infinite rebounds. Thank you Millie for helping us out today, you were an asset! 🥰

Our ever-valued and most versatile member of the squad, Amy, played a cracking match at WD also helping out our defence and effortlessly guiding the ball down the court and always being on the line for a reset. Truly the definition of “here if you need!” Katie and Imogen also worked tirelessly in centre court going for every ball and offering at every moment with dodges and changes in direction, fighting for loose balls and great feeds into the circle. Thank you to Imogen for allowing me to share your position at WA to make a debut during my recovery! 😘

Down in the attacking end, Frankie and Gemma continuously strived to put the ball in the net, and did just that! Incredible teamwork, long shots and fighting for any rebounds really paid off and shows in the final score. Hayley came into GS and had some good movement and great goals in the second half, working well with Frankie and playing the ball out where needed 🥳

An utterly golden game from everyone, well done Queens and a huge well done to our fab Franks for getting a very deserved POM award 👑

And a side thank you to everyone who helped out, played out of position, and looked out for each other with injuries and ailments today, what a team 🖤

Blossomfield Bees sting Clubs 27.10.24

Match report
Clubs v Blossomfield Bees

Well to be honest, I can’t be sure what happened on Sunday – spoiler alert – we lost.

Em put it a good way when she said, they didn’t win that game but we definitely lost. Bees weren’t necessarily a better team with us but their form and timing just came to play, whereas I think ours was still in bed.

We were slow to start and couldn’t recover from the lead this gave Bees, their shooters gained confidence and there was no looking back for them! And then, on the occasion we did get an interception, we almost went way too fast with it which inevitably meant we lost possession.

Having said that, we powered on through, well done team and we have somethings to work on at training. We now have a little break from games so we can work through pacing ourselves, slowing things down and keeping possession.

♣️ Clubs 37 – 46 Blossomfield Bees 🐝

Aces on fire against Hotshots 27.10.24

Aces 50 – 28 Hotshots

Today aces faced hotshots, a really nice team to play against and we took the win.
We took the lead in the first quarter and kept our heads positive throughout which really paid off. We maintained good control of the ball with some good movement and passing throughout the court. Cracking performance from the defenders who really put the pressure on and kept turning the ball over. The ball moved up the court really smoothly with some good control from the centre court players. Attacking wise we really worked hard on rotation and not forcing the ball and it paid of to win the match 50-28.
Thank you to Lucy and poppy for playing up for us today, you both really fit in with the team well.

Well played girls x
