THE Under 9’s took on Congupna in a hard-fought battle.

UNDER 11 WHITE

By HAYLEY RAGLUS

AFTER a tough loss to Kyabram last week, Euroa White came out strong against Tatura Whirlwind.

Peyton and Jocelyn made a great team in the goals, with strong passes between the two, and Jocelyn was outstanding all match and opened the scoring with a well-placed goal.

Caysa and Maya worked hard in the midcourt, both making several impressive intercepts that led to turnovers.

Georgia and Marley took over in the second quarter, working well together, with Marley feeding confidently and Georgia shooting consistently.

April made strong leads as centre and managed to find space when needed.

Olivia and Kanika’s passes were long and accurate, helping transition the ball towards Euroa’s goal.

With this being most of the players’ first season of netball, they are showing great improvement each week. Credit to coach Caitlin Crowe, who is doing an excellent job.

Euroa White played well and truly got the Cheezels.

UNDER 11

By KEIRA BODYCOAT

THE sun was shining, with a hint of a winter breeze in the air, as all 10 girls took to the court for the first time this season.

They came out blazing in the first quarter, with great movement through the middle of the court from Paige, Ava, and Eden.

Matilda and Lily moved like clockwork in the ring, demonstrating accurate shooting.

In the second quarter, the girls kept Grahamvale scoreless, with Clare and Holley working tightly in defence, supported by Lexi who applied pressure through the mid-court. Lily was constantly moving in the ring and found rhythm with her goals.

Grahamvale fought back in the third quarter, holding Euroa to only one goal.

Ella was active in defence, getting plenty of touches on the ball, while Scarlett zipped her way around in centre.

In the final quarter, the ball moved up and down the court continuously.

Defence from both teams was strong, but the grit and determination of the Euroa girls was stronger as they claimed their first win of the season.

SCOREBOARD: Euroa 12 defeated Grahamvale 7

AWARD WINNER: Lily Bodycoat

UNDER 13 BLACK

ANOTHER tough morning of netball for our girls today.

Kyabram were just too strong, defending hard, intercepting our passes and converting every time.

We improved each quarter and stopped them from scoring, but they had too strong a lead early.

Super proud of our girls who, at no point, dropped their heads or gave up.

They continued to fight for every possession throughout the whole game.

Our player of the week went to Olivia, who defended hard all game and made her opponent work for every possession.

The under 13’s came across a much stronger team this week, but the girls put up a great fight and kept up a winning streak.

Their defence was on fire, contesting every ball and making it very tough for the opposition in the ring.

We had a change up in the goal ring this week, which worked beautifully, and goal after goal was shot.

Our midcourters were very competitive this weekend but ultimately came out on top to assist our win.

UNDER 15 SECTION THREE

THE girls started the first quarter slickly but unfortunately had a few umpire whistles, which led to Tatura gaining a quick few goals.

The girls fought hard the entire game, but Tatura kept a tight defence.

In the third quarter, Euroa had some good intercepts and made good use of their voices, getting the ball down to the goal ring swiftly and gaining a couple of goals.

The whole team worked together and made good use of the court.

SCOREBOARD: TATURA 22 defeated EUROA 5

AWARD WINNER: Bridie Simpson, who stepped up to play a brilliant centre in the last quarter.
