What is the best tonic a team can give their coach?  A win, of course!  It was difficult to resist the lure of a home match to watch and almost impossible to keep quiet.  So, despite a sore throat and the flu, Mrs Millington ventured onto the edge of the court to enjoy a really good win.  There was a lot to keep spectators interested, with the lightning passes from Jessica to Molly and on to the two shooters, Hattie and Leona, who aimed accurately and with great poise.  Jamie and Abi were an excellent defensive team, Jamie soaring into the air to intercept almost all the high balls, and Abi never taking her eye off the ball to remain always in front of her opponent.  The team made the most of being on home territory.  I particularly enjoyed watching the clever bounce and chest passes from Jessica, the athletic runs into space by Hattie and the ever-alert Leona positioned right under the net.  It was good to see wings, Sophie and India, getting into great positions for short passes, which then linked the attack and the defence so beautifully.  So, thanks girls, you definitely set my adrenalin going and gave me a thrilling match that I was so glad I hadn’t missed!   LAM
