One win from three for Nerine in Jersey

NERINE H saw that their club avoided a whitewash in the netball 'Uptons' at the weekend.

With Nerine A losing out on the Division One title to Covent A and the E side going down 44-24 to St Brelade B in the Division Two clash, it was left to the local Division Three champions to salvage some pride for Guernsey.

And that they did when they won an extremely close and exciting match with Accies C by just two goals at the FB Fields.

'It was brilliant, we loved it,' said Nerine H's goal defence Laurel Garfield about the victory.

'It was a really close game. We didn't expect to come through and win.

'We thought it was going to be one of those days where you lose by just one point.'

It was the Jersey side that took an early lead and this set the tone for the whole game.
