ETC 2
BISHOP BELL 3
SHANTELLE OMAR 2
High paced, physical and competitive are the best ways to describe this game.  Bishop Bell hold an impressive netballing reputation, but the ETC girls came into the game with confidence having just beaten Ratton with a first-class performance.
The first half saw ETC on the back foot, defending well with Bekki French stopping every Bishop Bell shot on goal. The longer the half went on the more ETC were filled with self belief, gradually initiated their own attacks from defence to put Bishop Bell on the back foot.  The half finished 0-0.
Early in the second half BB broke away scoring 2, this seemed to drive on ETC to another level. Shantelle Omar showing her intelligence and speed of thought on court playing some delightful balls to work her way into the D.  Two great attacks coming out of defence through Tasha Guthrie and Lola Olusanya, allowed April Marshall and Toni Robertson to get more involved in attack, assisting Shantelle Omar in scoring 2 to make it even.  The last few minutes of the game saw both teams battling hard, both had opportunities to take the lead however the pressure seemed to overwhelm both teams shooters.  The dying seconds saw BB take their chance to score finishing the game 3-2.
A fantastic game that the girls should all be proud of, a draw would have been a fair score.
MVP 1st half: BEKKI FRENCH “a rock at the back of defence and stopped every single BB shot”.
MVP 2nd half: SHANTELLE OMAR “her intelligent games mentality drives the team forward and on target twice for the team”.
