Netballers fight for lead

18/04/2008 8:52:45 AM
Hornridge 1 and Green Devils continue their dominance in the senior netball competition.

Hornridge 1 (56) had a blistering win over Miners 2 with 16, Hornridge 1 with their full team in action were impressive to watch and are yet to show their best.

Hornridge 1 outplayed their opponents adding to their percentage, which currently places them in the lead of the competition, best for Hornridge 1 were Katica Cockshell and Sarah Kay.

Green Devils came out hard against Miners 1 producing a 17 to four goal first quarter, setting them up for a strong win with a final score of 47 to 26.

Green Devils strength across the court was too good for Miners 1 newly formed team.

Shooting combination of Grace Hollitt and Bec Fisher proved too good, while Lena Allen was a fighter in defence for Miners 1.

Miners 1 will improve with strength as the season progresses and could be difficult to beat.

Hornridge have recruited well during the off-season and have this year produced three senior teams, one in each grade.

The Hornridge 2 side has gained valuable experience with past Tangos players coming together with the youth of Hornridge, a handy combination against Yellow Devils on Friday night.

Hornridge 2 were 49 to Yellow Devils 25.

Yellow Devils are yet to play at full strength, and still have time to pull together to produce a win, we look forward to seeing them in action when our season recommences.

Our B-grade competition has Andamooka out with a two-point lead in front of Devils and Miners 3 on the premiership table.

Andamooka facing up to the young Miners 3 with Andamooka producing a strong win 52 to 30.

Devils were also too good for their counterpart.

Devils 56 to Hornridge 24.

This weekend was the start of the school holidays, which had an affect on the strength of our senior teams.

The season recommences on May 2 when we look forward to some more fierce competition when teams will be at full strength.
