The last 10+ weeks had been leading up to this day; our first match of the 2015/16 season. We faced the newly promoted Riverside in the England Netball Premier League 3 league. After a hectic last minute change to the venue both squads arrived for an 11am warm up, with the match start at 11.30am.
As the spectators started filling the sidelines, there were a lot of nerves about the squad. With two of our squad members returning from having babies last season and 3 returning from serious injuries, we needed to focus and look after each other on court. Coach Sarah Tomlinson provided some last minute encouragement and the starting seven was chosen:
GS – Rosie Bailey
GA – Hannah Alexander
WA – Rachel Towell
C – Sam Thomas
WD – Siobhán Gibbons
GD – Rebekah Airey
GK – Charlotte Fairclough
