It was a tough game against a very strong Moama line up, but to Finley’s credit, they didn’t give up.
With two shooters away, Sarah Haynes stepped up and played a great game with strong leads in and out of the circle.
She combined well with Sharni Sykes, who displayed consistency and pressure throughout the mid court.

The top two teams early in the season put on a great game this week!
It was a slow start for the Cats with some tough defence making our shooters work hard for goals.
The mid court had their work cut out for them, but their persistence paid off. The defenders worked hard for the rebound opportunities they got.
The match was goal for goal all the way to final whistle with the score line 41 all!

All girls took the court with a positive outlook, although knowing Moama were going to make it hard to win.
Each quarter they gave it their all and each quarter score showed the determination on working together with better passes and intercepts.
Defence had to work hard today but never gave up.
A big thank you to Charlotte for playing for the last three weeks while on school holidays.

The girls had a very sluggish start in the first quarter, but with a couple of positional changes they fought back with a better last half.
Unfortunately the margin from the first quarter was too much to make up.
