The 1st Team have had a slow start to the season with a young and inexperienced squad. They played well in patches but were too inconsistent against Queen's and West Buckland. However, the first game with Vice Captain, Lucy Simon, available saw a much more competitive display when comfortably outplaying Wellington. Jenna Witcombe has been the most impressive and consistent performer to date. The Taunton match again saw the team 2 or 3 short of full strength and they were well beaten. The defeat by Clifton represented by far the best performance this term against a very experienced side, so it was a little disappointing not to have run King's rather closer than we did.
