First South West win for Devizes!
Posted by Becky Sedgwick on 5 November 2012
In the first round of the South West Invitational League, Devizes faced Weymouth team Arethusans NC.
Devizes got off to a flying start, leading 4-0 after just a few minutes but the visitors found their rhythm and were ahead by 1 at quarter time. Devizes refocussed at quarter time and succeeded in restricting Arethusan's influential GA. ,Nicole Pfeil at centre lead a strong attack, with plenty of movement in the circle, resulting in a half time lead for Devizes of four goals.
Hannah Sedgwick made a welcome return from uni, coming on at GS in the second half, and Devizes pulled away easily in the last two quarters, the final score being 52-35. After the first round, Devizes leads the league table.
Many thanks to our umpires, timers, scorers and supporters, and congratulations to Player of the Match, Louise Pfeil.
