Jets gain bonus point against Tameside

Team Jets produced an excellent performance today in their away match against Tameside. The visitors were ahead at times against unbeaten League Leaders Tameside, and winning the first and last quarters. However, they just missed out on the win with a slower 3rd quarter to last year's runners up with the match finishing 55 v 51 but achieved an extra bonus point.


"The girls played out of their socks in the first half...it was phenomenal" said Coach Linda Andrews. "Our passing and moving was good, our errors were minimal and the shooters were on fire - we gave them a bit of a shock I think. But they upped the ante in the third quarter, after being 29 v 27 down at half-time, and we lost momentum." Despite regrouping to win the last quarter it wasn't enough to make up for the 3rd quarter deficit.
