U16 North Shropshire Tournament, The Marches School, pm

The tournament was well-attended, with eight teams from North Shropshire taking part.
 
Our first match was against Lakelands School and, as expected, was a tough match.  The girls kept their heads and supported each other well, particularly in the centre court link.  Good shooting from Kinzi Welsby kept us just ahead and Oswestry won 3-2.
 
Another good match followed against Thomas Adams, Wem with our defence being put under pressure as the Thomas Adams' shooters were in good form.  We were disappointed to lose 6-9.
 
In the next match against Corbet School, our girls rallied once more with more accurate passing and better marking, resulting in a well-deserved win of 10-2.
 
We met Ellesmere College in the semi-finals.  Although we started off well, Ellesmere kept up the pace and, unfortunately, we seemed to run out of steam eventually losing 3-7.
 
It was a most enjoyable afternoon and the girls played well together.
