COURTS HAD their second win in five games on Saturday after
defeating Bank of Nova Scotia 'B' 19-13 in the Business House Netball Open League
competition at the Leila Robinson courts.
Though an unimpressive match, BNS started out on a high. They had the ball in their control and dominated the game despite keeping much of the action in their third. However, Courts soon found their momentum and took over, dominating the second half.
A large part of the bank team's problem had to do with their shooters. Operating with their goal attack as the lone shooter in the second half, the burden of scoring fell to Tanisha Hibbert.
Coach Winston Nevers says shooting led to his team's demise.
"We did not play well. I think the shooting let us down this evening. We just have to go to the training sessions and see how we can work it out, work towards the divisional league and see if we can come out the winner," he told The Gleaner.
The victorious coach, Audrey Edwards, didn't have much to say about her team's performance.
"(The game was) fairly good. The full team has played hard. I think we did a good job," she said.
In other matches, the scores were: Tropicair 32 Areotel 12; Jamaica Money Market Brokers 10 Bank of Jamaica 10; Jamaica Public Service 24 NEM Insurance 16; First Caribbean Insurance Bank 1 RBTT 41; Continental Bakery Company 8 Life of Jamaica 25; Department of Correctional Services 24 Wray and Nephew 4; Victoria Mutual Banking Society 10 National Housing Development Com-mission 12; National Commercial Bank 'B' 15 COOL Petroleum 30; Lasco 15 National Water Com-mission 'B' 14; Grace 13 ISSA Transport 14; Air Jamaica 24 STATIN 12; and Jamaica Urban Transit Corporation 7 General Accident 47.
