Results 24th January.
Div A
NU Royal 35 T'breds White 17
NU White 32 Belton 41
NU Aylsham 32 T'breds Purple 43
Div B
NU Sapphire 48 T'breds 42
NU Yellow 20 Jets 45
Royal remain top of Div A after a convincing win over T'breds White. They took the opportunity to try some different attacking moves which worked well on the night.
White were in the game against Belton until the last quarter when a few errors crept in. Some of their play was excellent and as a squad they are improving all the time.
Aylsham put in a good performance against T'breds Purple to gain a well deserved point.
Sapphires whip up a storm last night against T'breds. Taking an early lead and never giving up meant that Sapphires closed the match with a convincing win by 6 goals to take over above T'breds and go top of Div B. Jo Johnson and Alice Whitehead shot really well and made good use of the shooting area. The whole team performance was superb both in attack and defence.
Yellows played very well on centre court but again had problems in the circle at both ends.With new players in their squad they are slowly gelling together ready for the summer season. |

Norfolk United 69 Panthers 9
Match Report
Our u/14 academy squad also had a great start to their East Region campaign with a convincing win against Panthers.
After losing our first centre pass against I did wonder if we were in for a tough match. No need to worry as Rosie Beel & Rhiannon Clarke played great together in the attacking circle and with good precise feeds from Grace Rider and Katie Light we gained a healthy lead by the end of 1st quarter of 18-1. In defence Hannah Agbeyeybe, Rio Topley and Jess Clegg worked well getting many tips and interceptions leading to many turnovers. Half time saw changes with Beth Palmer on at WD and Rosie Armes making an impressive U14 debut at WA. Jaimee Woodhouse came on in the last quarter at GS to help finish the job. Final score 69-9. Thanks to the bench players for your support. Player of the match went to Rosie Beel well deserved, your shooting was fab today. Thanks to everyone who supported us in the cold sports hall.
Huge thanks to our umpires Jo Springall and Emily Drake,scorer Natasha Franklin- Brown and to Carole and our team of mums for refreshments.

Sunday 22nd January.
Result Norfolk United 43 Tegate 39
Tegate travelled to Norwich today for the next match in the regional league. Norfolk United were expecting a tough match based on previous experience of the Tegate side. From the start the match was closely contested, requiring sound umpiring to maintain control. Norfolk gained momentum as the quarter progressed with some clean shooting from Karen Webb and Holly Gould and decisive centre court play from Fay Manning and Gilly Wigley. Norfolk finished the quarter 13-11. The second quarter saw Tegate continue to pressure the Norfolk attack and force errors. Their attack, lead by a confident GA fought against a strong Norfolk defensive unit of Vanessa Coulson, Carla Wilkins and Emma McCann achieving a half time lead of 22-20. The second half saw changes in centre court as Lorna Botwright and Claire Crosthwaite took the court. Norfolk worked hard across the court with some key interceptions from Carla Wilkins and Claire Crosthwaite but Tegate continued to pressure the attack. Norfolk maintained composure and finished the third quarter 30-28. The fourth quarter saw a strong start from the Norfolk side, challenging in all areas and patiently building the play into the shooting circle. Some good teamwork from Lorna Botwright and Gilly Wigley in the attacking third and accurate shooting from the circle pair allowed Norfolk to pull ahead. Tegate still pressured Norfolk in the final stage of the game forcing errors but Norfolk fought hard and took the game 43-39. A well contested game and well done to Gilly Wigley for receiving player of the match.

Norfolk United 47 Crosskeys 38
Match Report
Norfolk United played Crosskeys today in a closely contested match. Norfolk hoped to build on the strengths of the last match and take another convincing win. The match started evenly with some good play from both teams. Tight defence and calm attacking play allowed Norfolk to take an early lead. Crosskeys fought back with accurate shooting from their GS and pressure from their centre court and defensive players forcing Norfolk to make errors but Norfolk retained a four goal lead at half time. The second half saw ongoing pressure from the Crosskeys side preventing Norfolk from keeping rhythm. Norfolk continued to fight to retain the lead and some key interceptions from the defensive end and patient play in attack allowed them to maintain the four goal lead moving into the forth quarter. An inconsistent final quarter due to ongoing pressure from Crosskeys but with periods of strong play by the Norfolk side saw a closely contested battle finish with Norfolk United taking the win 47-38. Well done to Holly Gould for getting player of the match, thanks to those who didn't take the court today and thanks to all the spectators who turned out in a rather cold gym to support the squad. Tegate at home next Sunday 12 noon.
