Prem: Premier Romans 42 Eagles 69

Sunday 4th December 2022

The first week of December saw the conclusion of the first half of the season. Eagles travelled away to Premier Romans for a tightly contested match. The Eagles side was somewhat depleted due to NPL franchise commitments and injury therefore Sophia Shalabi, Katie Fisher and Jasmine Nightingale were unavailable for selection. This allowed ample amount of opportunity to test new combinations.

The first half saw a dynamic frontline capitalize on multiple deflections gained by Goal Keeper and Saracens Mavericks defender Tori Fisher. Accurate shooting from all combinations saw a 14 goal lead heading into the break.

The second half started with really strong defensive intent from the Premier Romans. The pressure created in the midcourt generated several turnovers however due to the tenacious efforts of Wing Defense and Captain Charlotte Maxwell, they struggled to capitalize.

The final score was 69-42 to Eagles. With the first half of the season now completed, Eagles remain undefeated and eager to continue their form leading into the second half.

Player of the match - Charlotte Maxwell.
