IN ANOTHER top-of-the-table clash, Beaconsfield’s Netball Club’s A-grade team visited Keysborough primed for battle – and was not disappointed.
With the full side in for the first time this season, Beaconsfield was spoilt for options and made great use of the bench.
The game was one of high defensive pressure with both defensive circles making access for the goalers difficult.
However, Beaconsfield managed to create a 12-goal lead by half-time and gain final victory by 16.
The combination in defence between Hogan, Gargan, Kennedy and Clark was a real strength and will cause many teams some headaches in the weeks to come.

Although the girls drew two quarters and won one, they went down to the tenacious Keysborough team by six-goals in a great display of netball.
Jennifer Driessen played an outstanding game in the second half, shutting down the Keysborough playmakers.
Erin Davy had her best game of the season causing many valuable turnovers.
@BT Sub Sport Gaz:C GRADE
The first game of the day at Keysborough was very even for the first half with each team going goal-for-goal.
The Beaconsfield girls took control of the second half playing a strong intense game with all players taking the time to control the ball.
Best on court was Claire Van Lambaart.
