Aces had a fantastic match against Blossomfield Bees; really proving why they deserve to have moved up to Division 1.
From the outset the match was highly competitive and physical, and it only took 5 minutes for one of our key players, Lucy Jones, to come off with a bad injury – Lucy, we all hope it’s nothing too major and you’re back on the court in no time!
As a team we used this time to reset mentally, recognising that we needed to play our game and keep our cool. With Lucy coming off Eliza Marshall slotted in at WA and you really wouldn’t have known that she hadn’t warmed up!!
From then on the match continued to be full on but we managed to keep our heads and before we knew it we had gained a comfortable lead. By the end we were dominating the match, playing our game and consequently managed to finish with a final score of 52:12. A shout out to Edie Buckham and Eliza for slotting into the team so well – the movement up and down the court was fantastic and it will be exciting to see where this season takes us!
Player of the match went to Rose but it’s fair to say that everyone through the court had a fantastic match!! Another shout out for Eliza for also getting captains player.
Let’s keep this momentum up ladies and I’m sure we will have a great season!!
