CANA - Day 2 Continued .......

The afternoon games were a little easier today. The Under 13's notched up their first win against Corcoran Park (gold). Chelsea played GS for the entire game and teamed with Lauren to pile on the goals. Kate Archer and Georgia Downward were rested for the game enabling Tahlia Hayton and Kalinda Gasparin to work on their defensive teamwork. Rebecca Joseph played well in WA with Ellie Gray backing up in the Centre position. Final Score was 30-15 !!! Well Done Girls.
Best players : Bec Joseph; Ellie Gray and Lauren Downward

The Under 17's were outstanding against Corcoran Park also. Claire was rested after half time along with Ellen Bowerman who has unfortunately injured her groin. Hopefully with a little rest and icing and stretches she may be able to take the court in the fourth game on Monday. The final score was 37-11.
Best Players : Nat Curtis, Genn Sullivan and Zoe Brown

The Under 15's had another win this afternoon, but I'm unable to update you with a score as we were not at the game.

The Under 21's played in the evening and they secured a 6 goal win against Corcoran Park (Blue). The only downside is: Rach Siely suffering from severe foot blisters, Jade Polonowski has a very sore calf muscle and Chloe Bennett was carried from the court with another ankle injury and probably wont play again during the carvival :(.
Best Players were: Kristy Paul, Nicole Terry and Rachael Siely.

The Under 17's commence games at 9.00am on Monday followed by U/13's at 10.30am. The weather is expected to be more of the same - cloudless, calm and HOT, HOT, HOT !!!

Ian is loving it.

Day 2 of CANA Championships

All teams played their second matches earlier today. They are all expected to play their 3rd match later in the day.

The U/13's played Marleston at 9.00am this morning. It was a relatively close game right through to the final quarter with the match tied going into the final term.
Renae Brelis and Tahlia Hayton both took tumbles earlier in the match and the team was under the pump having thrown away many opportunities with sloppy passes and far too many held ball penalties.
Marleston League ran away with the win in the final quarter defeating AYC 27-39.
The girls will get a second shot at this team later in the week and it should be noted that Marleston League defeated SAUCNA last night - so both teams can be beaten!!
Best players: Tahlia Hayton, Ellie Gray & Renae Brelis

The U/17's played Huon today at 10.30am. The Huon girls struggled against the quick AYC girls and with Laura Reggett and Genn Sullivan teaming well in defence and intercepting many loose passes they were runaway winners 48-16.
Best players: Laura Reggett, Genn Sullivan & Jess Boulter

The U/15's and U/21's played at 12 noon and 1.30pm respectively. In the heat of the day we did not stay to watch those games and therefore we're unable to give you an update with the scores at this time.

All teams play again later this afternoon, so I will update our blog as soon as I can.

Cheers
