Round 3 Healesville hosted Belgrave for the ANZAC round. Thank you to Healesville RSL for coming out to Don Road Complex and completing the ceremony.
Our young senior Bloods went out in perfect conditions with Mathew Moreton playing his first senior game coming from the under 17’s last year. We were keen to play a 4 quarter match in which we succeeded however inaccurate in front of goal.
Matty played a great first game but this was overshadowed by the dominant forward display of Max Donegan slotting 11 goals.
It was an even team performance with the team enjoying a 3-0 start to the season leading into the bye. The players are keen for their next challenge at Gembrook in which the tough and classy opposition will be met with much enthusiasm and desire to perform well.
The reserves had a really gutsy win over Belgrave on the weekend, a very professional team win against a strong physical side! Each week this group continually shows improvement and dedication to the jumper and each other.
The women came against a new look Belgrave side, our girls came out well prepared and ready for a good battle. Getting the early jump with a strong first quarter it set us up for the game. We continue to see improvement in our young side and look forward to working on our game over the coming weeks. We travel to Thornton next Saturday for a 1pm game.
The netball girls are putting strong efforts into their training which is showing on the court. Our passing has strengthened and the ball is flowing down the court nicely. Unfortunately we have come up against some strong opposition, but we are edging our way closer to a win. We welcomed three new players on Saturday, but are still looking for a few more. Training is on Thursday nights if you are interested in playing with a great bunch of girls.
The Veterans played against Mt Evelyn under lights. An even first quarter saw the ball Moving around the ground well. Healesville men turned their feet in the second quarter putting on a dominant display running away with a strong win.
The seniors and reserves head into a bye with our 19s boys and netballers playing at home on Saturday.
