It was a tough game in wet conditions, with lots of slipping and sliding it was challenging to maintain pressure.
Blighty’s team worked hard to work through a strong defence however were unable to consistently convert.
While not the result Blightly was hoping for, there was a lot to take away from the game to regroup and come back stronger.
Awards: Natalie Tremble, Charlotte Strong and Bridie Blake.

What an excellent game.
The Blighty shooters shot with confidence, and the goals were bang-on.
The Blighty mid court worked much better this week.
The team’s defence were strong and alert causing turnovers.
A exciting game to watch to build team spirit and confidence.
Awards: Best on court Tiah Macdonald - your efforts really showed - Stacey Doolan who just kept going, Krystle Winter for playing amazingly when thrown in the deep end in goal keeper with no warning, and Shelby who was always consistant.
Under 17s: Blighty 21 def by Strathmerton 30
The Blighty team had a couple of their regular players away so a very talented Chelsea Weir stepped up from the Under 15s, and together with her sister Maddie, were quite a force in defence.
Erica Nicholls once again shone in centre with loads of intercepts.
Unfortunately the Strathy girls seemed to handle the wet weather better than Blighty did.
Awards- Erica Nicholls and Maddie Weir.
