Anna Proctor continues her good form in the girl’s netball team; again her shooting skills contributed to a fine win over local rivals Pangbourne College, a thumping 21-15 away win. Shiplake started the match confidently ending the first quarter 5-1 to Shiplake. They let Pangbourne back into the game but managed to hold their lead at 8-5 by half time. As the third quarter started, Shiplake began to play stronger again and thanks to Anna Proctor and Sophie Arnold’s shooting skills, they almost doubled the score to 14-7, the final quarter of the game was by far the hardest, Pangbourne began to fight back but substitutions paid off as the centre-court play became dominated by the Shiplake girls, channelling the ball easily past the Pangbourne opposition to the awaiting shooters, Proctor and Arnold. Thanks to the strong determination and fast fluid movement from the Shiplake girls, they overcame Pangbourne for a second consecutive match and won 21-15. Well done to all the girls and I look forward to Anna captaining the Everett Netball team in the House competition next week.
