Omega County vs Wodson Ladies 1 - Sun 20th Oct 2024
Wow…what a performance by the County squad today ????????????????. All sporting their pink in support of ‘Breast Cancer’ weekend with the league.
The team faced the top of the table, Wodson Park 1 today for their county game, so we knew we were in for a tough game.
The first quarter saw strong defensive play from mid court to GK, with 14 turn-overs gained. The opposition were unnerved by the tight and solid play of Omega. A strong opening to the game and an early lead for Omega with a closing quarter score of 9-7 in our favour.
Some team changes going into 2nd quarter unsettled the squad and Wodson began to claw back the goals and turnover the lead and by mid game, Omega were loosing 21-15.
The team reverted to the 1st quarter setup and once again, were on fire. We applied pressure and controlled our play, allowing us to regain our composure and play our game.  The team linked well, taking the ball to goal once more, but some forced feeds at circle edge proved problematic.  Nevertheless, Omega were strong and won the quarter and close the gap in the scores, going in to the final quarter with a 3-goal deficit and score of 31-28.
Final quarter and some fresh legs, once again unsettled the play and as before, Wodson punished us for it as their defence read the game well and hunted the ball at every opportunity.   The game ended 37-48 to Wodson, but the whole Omega squad can be proud of their solid performance today and the team camaraderie.  We did not make this easy for the opposition and contended for the game throughout.
POM is awarded by the team to Tara Pryde….well done Tara ????????????????
The team is gelling well with each game and show so much potential for strongly contending all future games. The future looks bright for this squad, who were newly formed this season????
