What a fantastic finale to end a successful season, I am so proud to say Diamonds have won every game this season.
What a nail biting game, 33-31 to the Diamonds.
In the first quarter the Diamonds won 7-5, we were ahead in the next two quarters.
However the opposition grew stronger during the last quarter and the Diamonds were down by 4.
This was Freya’s last game and WOW what a great game she had, her tight marking forced many interceptions on a skilled shooter. Thank you for playing for us and we wish you all the best for the future, we hope to see you next year.
Poppy M WHAT A CRACKING INTERCEPTION you made nearing the end of the game, this made you and everyone else beam. We can always count on Poppy for re-offering on the line.
Chiara was, as per usual, a great attacking and defensive centre, gluing the defence and attack together and making numerous interceptions.
Georgina was a very strong WA keeping her WD in check, Georgina constantly drove forward to receive the ball from the defence.
Eliza stepped up as GA and GS despite a very touchy goalkeeper, she maintained her position leading to rotation and shots in the D.
Katie dodged her player effectively which allowed for her superb long shots.
Despite Poppy B not being able to play much today, you can always be relied on to be ready for a pass.
The player of the match went to Mary “two hands Mary”. Well done Mary, you really deserved player tonight for your perpetual interceptions, you kept going in spite of a tiring game.
Thank you Elaine for your passion and enthusiasm from the side lines every week and for being our coach.
Thank you Alison for encouraging the team and keeping updated on our results.
Thank you Lucy for the fizz, I’m sure all the parents will have had the alcoholic version to settle their nerves.
Thank you to all the parents for all your support week in week out.
Finally, Chloe we missed you tonight you have been the best captain a team could ask for.
Hannah you’re a little pocket rocket that had helped lead us to victory, we will miss you and we wish you the best for the future.
We missed you tonight Edie, what a season our newest player has had. Was it 4 times in a row you got player? 😄
