We knew this was going to be a close match against HSBC who were promoted alongside us this season.

The first quarter was close but with some silly errors of our own, HSBC narrowly took the lead 9-7

We started the second quarter well with some great play all the way down the court but HSBC managed to turnover the ball a couple of times, ending the quarter 19-15.

With fresh legs at half time, we managed to get into a rhythm. Some great defensive pressure and interceptions meant Hannah and Izzy were able to secure the turnovers, scoring goal after goal. With a new found confidence in our play we ended the quarter up by 3, 26-29.

Going into the final quarter 3 goals up we knew it was going to be a tense 15 minutes. With both teams alternating taking the lead in the final few minutes, the game could have gone either way. The final whistle blew and HSBC were infront 37-36 but Izzy’s cracker of a long distance penalty shot in the last second secured the draw for the Ds with the match ending 37-37.

Shout out to the Es and Erin from the Cs for their support on the sidelines!
