13 & Under – Hatherleigh 42 def by Kalangadoo 60


In windy conditions the Hatherleigh team was the first to turn over Kalangadoo centre pass.


This got the fire into the Kalangadoo girls and from then on they stepped up and put more pressure on the Eagles.


At the first break there was only three goals in it, with Liv Faulkner shooting with accuracy, being fed well by Alirah Bowman and Hazel Hamilton.


Great passing down court from Harper Griffiths, Matilda Peacock and Zara Cole in the Kalangadoo attacking line up fed extremely well into the goal circle.


Ebony Reeves stood out in shooting at GS and Hatherleigh’s Leyla Marshall and Kaia Green tried their best to shut down the direct line into her.


At the main break Kalangadoo had extended their lead to four, despite the strong defensive efforts from Tilly Prouse.


Peacock had full speed on in GA and defended very well with a lot of pressure, creating plenty of turnovers and nice cuts and drives into the goal circle.


With that said the Kalangadoo defence line with Emily Simon, Jorja McLaughlin, Milla Lennon and Ashley Grosvenor all committed to strong defence over the ball with Te Kani Clark’s leading and communication in GK makiing it hard for Hatherleigh’s attacking line to feed it into their goal area.


Thanks to Kalangadoo’s determination they held a great lead and went on to win the grand final.


Best players for Kalangadoo were Ebony Reeves and Matilda Peacock, while Alirah Bowman and Hazel Hamilton took the honours for Hatherleigh.


The In2Trophies best on court was presented to Kalangadoo’s Te Kani Clark.
