The 2018-2019 fixtures start in style!

Clockhouse played our first sports fixture of the year as they visited Scotts Primary for a netball fixture.

Clockhouse have had good games with Scotts in previous years and this was to be another great contest.

The opening exchanges were very nervy with both teams trying to find their feet. Scotts settled the quicker of the two sides and got a 3 goal lead.

As we entered the third period Clockhouse were still not on the scoreboard but then something just clicked and Clockhouse were back level within two minutes. Mia C scoring twice and captain Lily S-E also finding the net. Clockhouse now had a buzz about their game and a Ben C double ensured that Clockhouse had a lead going into the later stages of the contest. Solid defensive performances from Brooke A, Kayleigh S, Hayden M and John O limited Scotts to just the one score.

The game finished in fine style Scotts finding the net another 3 times but Clockhouse showing their raw potential. Lily S-E scoring another 4 while Mia C scored her hat trick and Hayden M chipped in at the end for the icing on the cake.

Mr Yarrow said 'looking back at that game it showed great Clockhouse spirit to keep our heads high and come back from being three down. It was great to see the potential once we started to get into our flow. Without dount their is stuff to work on at netball club but this was a positive start. There were a lot of debuts Poppy A grew into the game the more she played. I also thought the twins linked up really well.

Well done team!

Thank you for all the supporters who came to watch and thanks to a strong Scotts side for their hospitality.

I look forward to seeing the team back on court as soon as we can arrange more fixtures.'
