Diamonds Dominate the Weekend: Strong Wins for Under-11s and Under-12s

Richard Lucas17 Jun - 07:10

A weekend to remember for Diamonds Netball Academy!

Under-11s Shine in 35–8 Victory

The Under-11s were in top form, producing a dominant 35–8 win through smart movement, relentless defense, and polished attacking play.

Player’s Player was awarded to Flo B, who delivered an exceptional all-round performance. Her shooting was precise, her movement off the ball was excellent, and she consistently made an impact at both ends of the court.

Coach’s Player went to Vrinda, who was immense at Goal Keeper. She read the game superbly, shutting down the opposition’s attack and setting the tone for the defensive unit.

Girl of the Game, as voted by the opposition, was Anya, who impressed with her consistency off the centre pass, sharp feeds into the circle, and positive energy throughout. It was a complete team display and a well-deserved win for the U11s.

Under-12s Show Grit and Class in Comeback Win

The Under-12s faced a tough test against a London Falcons side who had beaten them earlier in the season by 30–17 — but the Diamonds turned the tables with a hard-fought 27–23 victory.

Aurelia was outstanding across the court and swept all the accolades — named Opposition’s Player of the Match as well as the Coach’s Player for her composed, dynamic, and commanding performance.

Izzy Parker took home Player’s Player, with her lethal shooting keeping Diamonds ahead in a close contest. Her accuracy and confidence under pressure were crucial in sealing the win.

The team showed great resilience, particularly after Tilly had to leave the game with a badly bleeding finger. Flo B, stepping up from the U11s, filled the gap in the shooting circle with a calm and confident performance — another testament to the depth and adaptability within the squad.

Every player across the court contributed to the win. This was a true team performance marked by grit, determination, and unity.

Well done to both the Under-11s and Under-12s for two fantastic wins — showing composure, skill, and team spirit. A brilliant weekend for the Diamonds!
