Horrabridge 30

Plymstock Pumas 12

IN this division three match of the Plymouth and district Netball League Horrabridge got off to a flying start. They took control of the first quarter with excellent teamwork in centre court from Burgess, Crosby and Nevin, feeding accurately into the D.

Callard and Abbott converted to make the score 8-2 at the end of the first quarter.

Horrabridge continued to dominate play throughout the second quarter. Scott and Daymond closed down Pumas’ attack allowing Horrabridge to stretch their own lead 16-5.

Horrabridge made one change in the third quarter, when Shadrick stepped in to rest Crosby, who had an excellent half and made some superb passes to Callard; she, in turn, fed into Abbot in the D finishing the third quarter 22-7.
