The 1st, 2nd, U15, U13 and U12 netball teams all came away victorious from their netball matches against Shebbear this weekend. Coach driver error meant that the four away matches started nearly an hour late but that just seemed to spark the Plymouth teams into action.
Captained by Megan Palmer, the 1st team game was fast-paced and competitive. After an hour of exhilarating play Plymouth emerged the winners with 42 goals to 24. Their victory follows on from equally impressive wins against West Buckland (22-20) and Torquay Girls Grammar (20-6).
The 2nd team, captained by Katherine Moiser, cruised to a relatively easy victory winning by 22 goals to 13. Other good wins for the team so far this season have been against Stover (22-12) and Exeter (19-5).
The U13s and U12s also won their matches by fair margins. The U13s beat a tall Shebbear side 16-6 with the U12s producing a very good display of tactics and ability, winning 18-7.
At home the U15s also won. Trailing until the last quarter, a tactorial team change led to a turn in fortune and the final score was 19 goals to 17 in Plymouth's favour.
