Plot Thickens in Netball League Top Tier

Things are getting really exciting in the Horsham Area Primary Schools Netball League Division A. The Leechpool and Nuthurst A teams increased their stock price with a number of victories and when the two of them met they shared four goals equally. However All Saints won both their matches on the night, refuse to be shaken off in their hunt of the leading teams and indeed have games in hand to utilise in pursuit of their ambition.

Nuthurst B couldn’t quite maintain their push however, falling just short in both their matches, firstly against Nuthurst A by a single goal and then 6-3 to All Saints.

Southwater A consolidated their mid-table position with an emphatic win over North Heath and although Leechpool A were too strong they gave an excellent account of themselves in the most exciting game of the night which finished 5-3.

A tough night for Leechpool B and Shelley A teams, losing all their matches but well done to North Heath for gaining their first win, beating Leechpool’s second-string 2-1 to haul themselves off bottom spot.
