Jess Garland

Team Bath netball coach, Jess Garland, used the full strength in depth of her squad in a 39-64 victory away to Team Northumbria this weekend.

Team Bath’s netballers shrugged off the effects of a snow-delayed arrival in Newcastle to start strongly and lead 17-10 at the end of the first quarter.

The home side hit back to win the second quarter 13-12 after which Garland made multiple changes to the line-up for the second half.  Team Bath took the third quarter by a crushing 17-5 before going onto win.

Garland said:  “More of our changes worked well and had impact which is a good sign at this stage giving us more options and keeping the competition for places up in the squad.  Overall this was a step in the right direction for this stage in the season”.

And the two sides will clash once more at the University of Bath Sports Training Village on Friday 19 March at 7.30pm in a rescheduling of the home TeamBath fixture which was snowed off in January.

Before that Team Bath return to action at home on Saturday 6th March with a potential thriller against long-time rivals Loughborough. And Team Bath is offering its fans a Multiple March Magic Offer for the next four Games:

“March is a crucial month for TeamBath as we aim to retain our Superleague title,” said Jess Garland, TeamBath’s head coach. “They’re some of the biggest games of the season for us and it would be great to have to have big crowds behind us to cheer us on.

“Our fans have been tremendously loyal and we’re keen to reward them with some great offers through March Multiple Magic.”
