Netball report: Challock 8 – 1 Charing

Another strong performance by our Challock squad earned an excellent win over Charing in this Friday’s Ashford Schools’ Netball league. Like last week, the starting quintet began extremely well, creating a number of chances to take the lead, and this they did, with Charlotte and Elliott scoring, Charing replying with one of their own. The second quarter continued in this way, with Zach (2) and Leticia (1), now moved into the Goal Attack and Goal Shooter roles, each scoring to take Challock to a 5-1 lead at half time. Elliott continued to be extremely strong in defence, intercepting the ball continuously to provide counter-attack opportunities. Katie and Drew continued to work hard as they get used to moving into space and up the court when needed. Ben scored his first goal for the team in the third quarter, as did Katie and then Charlotte in the fourth quarter to lead Challock to an 8-1 victory. The squad are getting used to the ‘High 5’ rotation system of needing to change positions after each quarter; this was another good win, and after two matches, all of the squad have scored! Leticia and Zach earned a joint ‘Star Player’ award, nominated by Charing, and pleasingly, Ms Todd and Mrs Pike have a greater number of eager netballers now attending their Monday afterschool club!

Team: Leticia, Charlotte, Katie, Drew, Zach, Elliott and Ben
