2nd VII: Won 20-11
The girls adapted well to the very windy conditions by using short, sharp passes. With a confident approach in attack, both Helen and Caitlin shot very well and gained good positions in the circle. Strong play in defence prevented Kimbolton from gaining good shooting positions. Consistently strong centre court play brought the ball effectively into the attack. A well-deserved win.
3rd VII: Won 20-15
The thirds were victorious against Kimbolton, winning 20-15. Olivia was player of the match for showing her commitment throughout the game. The shooters coped admirably with the very windy conditions. There was an excellent team spirit today and all players demonstrated versatility, playing in different positions around the court.
U15 B: Won 15-10
With the stormy weather against us we were ready to do battle! The Kimbolton girls gave us a tough game we pulled through with a 15-10 win and Hannah Barratt claiming Player of the Match,
U14 B: Lost 6-9
Unfortunately we faced tough weather and lost the match 6-9. It was very hard to get goals in with the wind. Although we did put up a good fight and intercepted lots of balls.
Congratulations to the two players of the match, Kitty Jones and Tayler Lodge for their pressure defending the opposition.
U14C: Lost 26-3
Didn’t give up fighting! The defence, despite the score played really well. We just never quite managed to make the most of the ball at the attacking end. Sophie Weston had a good first full appearance in the Cs. Yumico Cui valiantly had a go at a new position Bonnie Jones and Emily Tydeman also called in last minute. All gave their best efforts but were beaten by a skilled, fast and slick Kimbolton team.
U14D: Lost 21-1
The best match spirit I have seen for a while. Rain and shine the D’s in their first match this season made the most of representing Felsted.
They did not drop their heads as Kimbolton showed their skills. Sabrina Mardon made sure that Kimbolton never had 2 shots in a row always picking up the rebound. Lari Mabhena took on a dynamic role as Center.

Haileybury
1st VII
Lost 38-32
From the moment the whistle went, it was evident that this game was going to be a highly contested one. Despite Felsted falling behind in the first half, the players never stopped fighting in the battle to win the match and they staged a 3rd quarter come-back, tightening the goal difference. At the end of the third quarter it looked as though Felsted were going to turn things around; our defence were making some great intercepts, our attack were moving the ball quickly and accurately down the court and feeding some effortless balls into the circle and, our shooters were putting shots up from all over the D. Unfortunately, in the 4th quarter some 50:50 chances didn’t quite go our way. Sadly this resulted in us not quite catching the Haileybury score and we lost by 4 goals. This game was a very passionate performance and the girls should take pride in how they fought hard in the second half to win that section and close the gap. Things look promising for games ahead. Player of the match voted by Haileybury was given to Tamara Evans.
2nd VII
Lost 21-16
The girls played with determination throughout the game. Tabatha and Caitlin fought to gain good positions in the circle and shot well, despite the wind. However, the opposition were strong and much of the game was played in the defending third. Rachel and Isabella were resilient in making it difficult for the opposition shooters to gain position to shoot. The final score was 21 - 16. The first loss for the girls this season. Well done to Tabatha who was playing for the 2nds this week and gained player of the match.
3rd VII
Lost 31-8
The thirds played a strong Haileybury side today. The first quarter was equally matched by both sides but Haileybury's momentum developed and they ran away with the score winning 31-8. Player of the match was Sophie Cuthbert, who played with undeterred enthusiasm.
U14 B
Lost 19-11
Unfortunately Haileybury won 19-11. Although, we put up a good fight with the harsh weather.
