U12A Sussex Cup Semi Final vs Warden Park
On Monday, the U12s took on Warden Park in the Sussex Cup Semi Final. This had been a long-awaited match, and the girls were raring to go. One of the team's focuses has been working on their first quarter, as this has been our weakness across the term. We struggled with this again, quickly going 7-0 down. The team's response was good, drawing the second quarter 5-5, and 6-11 down at half time. WP battled through the second half of the match, with the U12s being blocked out of the game and struggling to attack.
Andrea, Sorcha, and Naomi managed to get an outstanding amount of turnovers against the tall WP shooters, but we struggled to get the ball out from the back of the court. The final whistle blew and the score was 21-12 to WP. It was an unfortunate loss for the U12s who were simply outplayed on Monday, but there are some positives to take away. A huge well done goes to Naomi for stepping up at the last minute to play, and for getting Coaches' Player of the Match for her fantastic interceptions at the back.

U13s into the Final of the Sussex Cup!
On Monday, we took on Warden Park in the Semi-Final of the Sussex Cup. We went straight up after some excellent turnovers from our defence and were leading 6-3 after the first quarter. We continued to push on with some patient play from our attack, resetting the ball until our shooters felt comfortable.
The girls played with high intensity throughout and maintained it to see the win over the line 23-16. It was a fantastic performance to see us into the finals on Wednesday 22 March.
Congratulations to Lula who received Oppositions' Player!
