Samford Netball Club

We mixed things up a bit this week and moved a few girls around.  This meant it took a little while for the girls to find their groove but once they did they took off.  Our shooters did well against the tall defenders and the number of intercepts this week was outstanding.  Remember hard work at training pays off each week in the game.

WOW! We started the game with 6 players on the court, we were all nervous to see how the game would turn out, however once the girls started they did an amazing job and they are improving so much. Thanks you so much to the awesome nipper fill ins. The defense were like ninjas today doing an awesome job. The shooters did a really good job; they communicated to each other and moved around together in the circle nicely. The attack was fabulous, they were coming forward (yay!) and there was a lot less stepping! well done girls. Keep up the amazing job at training and in the games.

Congratulations girls! I'm sure i can speak for everyone when I say that the improvement in our game was very evident this week! Everyone played so well and everyone of the girls should be so proud of themselves! lets keep it up girls :) 

Another great win by the girls.  It was hot but the girls kept going until the end.  It is nice to see the girls reading the play and backing one and other up when needed.  The flow of the ball down the court was solid as was our defence. 

Team 13 played will this weekend against a very tough opposition. It is pleasing to see them all improve each week the training and practice is paying off. Lauren and Meg both scored thier first goals for the team (well done). Adenique had another great game at goal keeper this week.

Well done girls!!

This was a really hard game for our girls. There was some excellent shooting from Maddie. Lucy did a lot of chasing loose balls,and played really hard all game.  Which is why she deserved player of the match this week.  Our passing was good, and we got a lot of good intercepts. But in the end, Raiders were just a little bit better than us.

It was an evenly matched and high-scoring game this week against St. Joseph's.  The girls all played well with some noticeable improvements in moving the ball up the court, some quick ball passing and strong defending.   Our player of the match this week was Amber, who displayed great speed on the court. Every week the girls are improving, growing in confidence and developing a strong team spirit.

Our first win for the season - well done girls. It was a shame that it was a shortened game, but a win is a win!!

Unfortunately there is quite a disparitty in this Inter's divison and whilst the team played really well in the previous game, the same plan came unstuck against the bigger,stronger and leading team of the division. It was good to see you all kept your heads up and put more pressure on their attack in the second half, we will however need to improve our drive for the ball and apply more pressure to create a closer contest next time we play them.

Congratulations girls!  You played your hearts out.  It was hot and your opposition were tough but to your credit you came back from 5 down at half time to produce an outstanding win.  It was amazing to watch you all dig deep and fight your way back.  I am so proud of you all.  Keep working hard and you will continue to succeed. 

Good game by the girls. The Valleys girls were the better team on the day. We had a lot of chances but did not quite turn them in to goals. We did show a lot of fight considering that we were a couple of team members down. Defence was very good against the Valleys tall timber.

Well done team 13.

Our girls put up a great defence, with Emma getting some great tips and intercepts in the goal cirle.  All the girls worked well at moving the ball down the court. 

Wow! We had a great start to the game by scoring the only goal, and then the defense did an amazing Job, never letting the opposition score. It was nail biting on the sideline in the last 15s hoping the defense will pull though, not letting the opposition score even one goal. Well girls, keep up the hard work at training.

It was an interesting game, as we started the game off slowly. In the second half the girls turned the game around and they outscored the opposition 3 to 1, the defense really shut them down, unfortunately it was not quite enough to get them over the line but they played very well all the same. Well done girls!
