Final Score:  Eagles 40 – 7 Newbury. (W)

Eagles started strongly with immediate intercept from Newbury’s centre and we’re off the blocks; Kiera, Helena and Dane were a solid wall at the back not allowing Newbury into the D until well into the quarter whilst Marta linked up brilliantly with the two Charlottes and Annabel scoring almost every shot.  Newbury’s GS is the main danger and she does manage to score twice from her only 2 shots.  12-2 at the end of Q1.

Final Score: Eagles 14 - 61 Weston Park Blades (L)

On Saturday, we played Weston Park Blades in the south region tournament. We travelled down to a very nice setting in rural Hampshire. Our last game ended in a hard fought draw, so we thought Weston would come out hard to justify their current high position in the league.

Final Score: Eagles 60 v 31 Woodley (W)  

Today a mix of u15’s and u16’s played in the u19 regional league against Woodley at Woodford sports Park.

Final Score: Eagles 68 v 39 Clan (W)

The U16's put on a great performance today. The team worked hard throughout the match and in the second quarter they pulled away, only conceding 4 goals, to make the score 30-11 at half time demonstrating a great performance from the tight defence unit.

Final Score: Eagles 28 v 37 Clan (L)

We all came into this game positive, not so much that we would win but that we would put up a good fight. In the first quarter, it was a bit sloppy, we weren’t working very well together and a lot of silly mistakes were made. This led to Clan starting off ahead with a score of 8-4 to them.

Final Score: Eagles 43 v 5 Finch Green (W)

Centre Pass was a little late at nearly 2pm and Finch turned us over from the off but they didn’t keep it long and we went straight down the middle, high ball into Eden, who scores within 30 seconds. 

Final Score: Eagles 43 v 28 CN Select (W)

Our South Region U19 development match versus CN Select started off as a tough battle with many interceptions being made by both teams. The first quarter started off well for Eagles scoring from the first 3 centre passes. From there, the team kept up the work rate and finished the first quarter winning 10-8.

Final Score: Eagles 44 v 20 MK Netters (W)

The first match of the year with the U13 Development Squad, and what a match it was! We were all very excited for this match but unfortunately, not everyone could make it, due to injuries/illnesses.

Final Score: Eagles 60 v 21 Woodley (L)

Going into the first match after Christmas, we were all excited to try and improve our play and work hard. The match was against Woodley, and we all knew it was going to be very tough, but we went in with our heads held high.

Final Score: Eagles 28 v 15 Magnet (W)

As the match got underway you could tell it was January! Slow start, lots of footwork, lots of intercepts, Magnet fouling all over the court and Eagles missed 9 shots in a row!  3-3 as the quarter closed, Magnet were as rusty as we were.

Final Score: Eagles 65 v 25 CD Phoenix (W) 

Eagles Under 16s started the second half of the season with a solid win against CD Phoenix. After a four week Christmas break the team was keen to get back on court. We came out really strong in the first quarter resulting in us being 16 goals ahead.

Final Score:  Eagles 22 v 7 Magnet (W)

I think you could tell it was a while since there last competitive match after the Xmas break. The team got off to a slow start with footwork, players making the same drives, and missed shots.

Final Score: Eagles 34 v 24 Swan (W)

Eagles U13 travelled to Southampton for their very long awaited second fixture against Swan.

The hosts warmly welcomed the 7 Eagles players who had very sadly lost their 8th squad member Anna that morning having lost  (literally) her finger in the front door leaving home for the match.
