Queens are running on a 100% success rate as we took to a very wet and slippery court to beat Ryland Rubies 32-12 👑 🥳
The morning was not looking bright as we arrived amid the downpours and a very threatening sky and player’s spirits were reflective of this, but we got our butts moving and picked ourselves up 🙌🏼
Defence was absolutely tip-top, as always, with Beth, Lucinda and Stacey who are our consistently strong and very reliable trio making intercept after intercept for the rest of the team to turnover 🔥
Centre court kept pushing on, even when the going got WET and there were a few calls for footwork, and loose passing and receiving where the ball was simply too slippy to grip, but by q2&3 we managed to reign it back in with some steady pace and reminding ourselves of the basics, and then we begun to fly again, thanks to Stacey, Amy, Gemma, Sophie, Antonia and Frankie who all had a go (even with many of us out of our first positions)! 🏃♀️💨
Shooting was unreal, with the hard work between the combinations of Frankie & Amy, and Gemma & Hayley really having paid off where are seeing great movement, great timing and great teamwork to get goal after goal (not to mention the accuracy and conversion of shots has gone sky-high in the last few months) 🚀
Player of the match was deservedly awarded to Gemma for taking on C for a quarter where others don’t dare, IMMACULATE shooting at GA, never ever tiring and always bringing a very valued laugh to the whole team, even in dire conditions 🌧️
Queens; your very happy cappy 🫡
