WEEK 23 of Callington and District Netball League began with a physical and competitive game between LOM and Loreal Kids. Loreal started brightly, taking advantage of silly mistakes by LOM and matching them goal for goal. The second half saw LOM improve after swapping positions, and they began to pull away with good play from Sarah Stephens (C). Loreal continued to work hard, with good defending from Rachael Pace and Becky Merry, getting a point as their reward.
Final score: LOM 22, Loreal Kids 11.
Nominated players: LOM, Nicola Harris (GS); Loreal Kids, Becky Merry (GK/GD).
The second game was a little less competitive with league leaders Samworth Seven thrashing bottom of the table Rentafford 53 goals to 1.
Nominated players: Samworth, Sophie Jury (GS); Rentafford, Fiona Rundel (GD).
The final game, between Spot On and YAO, was as competitive as the first. Both teams produced good displays in all areas of play to keep things even, particularly YAO?s Suzy Timmis, who, at GA, was playing out of position. In the final quarter Spot On pulled up a gear and began to edge ahead with good shooting from Carol and Sam Carter.
Final score: Spot On 26, YAO 15.
Nominated players: Spot On, Elaine Moyles (WA); YAO, Sally Humphries (WA).
