Collyer’s Netball 2’s hosted Strodes College. After an intense four quarters, the Collyers girls came out on top with a final score of 21-19.

The Collyer’s team comprised: Amelie Dale ( C), Amber Francis, Romany Ghibaldan, Edie Howell, Evie Jeffrey; Jade Kremnitzer ( C), Anya Masterson, Isobel Morton, Evie Riley, Jess Smith, Anya Swann, and Isla Widdows.

Although in September the team triumphed away at Strodes winning by 30 goals, the visitors set out with determination and victory in their sights. They closed down Collyer’s early 4 goal lead to level 10-10 after the second quarter.

However, Collyer’s valiantly fought back with a particularly outstanding performance from the defence. The team intercepted Strodes play, scoring more goals, and stole the victory when it mattered.

Co-captain Jade Kremnitzer said: “It was a difficult match. Their defence was really good, but our defence played exceptionally”.

Strodes awarded their player of the match to Collyer’s centre Evie Riley.
