POTM Lucy Stevenson
Oldham went into this game on the back of a very hard and not a great performance against Tameside the week before. It was important Oldham bounced back with a new approach to the game. Oldham had a larger squad this week with 11 players. Oldham started well and scored off their first centre pass. The game kept switching as to who had the control, Oldham would scroe 3 goals in a row and then Blackpool would do the same and no team could break the 3 goals down. However Oldham managed to pull out a much better performance this quarter and crept into the lead 17-10.
 
Going into the second quarter Kimberley Meadows came on at GA and Amber Hazelton at WD. Both players settled into the game well and Oldham maintained the lead. A few errors did creep in during the game, but the defence continued to turn the ball over for the red and blue side. Oldham achieved 11 turnovers in this quarter many coming from the leader at the back Jess Dale. Lucy Stevenson was on fine form in the circle and did not miss one goal in this quarter. The score after the second quarter, Oldham managed to another 3 goals ahead taking the score to 30-20.
 
Third quarter Stevenson and Meadows changed positions, Rachel Fitszimmons came on to GD and Rebecca Hope came on at C. Oldham still allowed errors creep into their game and the ball did not flow like it can for the red and blur side, but when they did get the ball into their shooters, they put the ball in the net. Oldham managed 3 goals in a row early in the quarter, which allowed them some breathing space. A solid performance from both teams and Oldham winning the third quarter by only one gaol took the score to 42-31.
 
Final quarter Katie Bodha came back on at WD, Stevenson went back to GS and Sarah Brennan came back on at GA. Oldham settled in the game well and injected some speed into the game. Stevenson continued to be strong in the shooting circle and popping the ball into the net for Oldham. Bodha made an impact early on into the quarter and applied a lot of pressure on Blackpool’s WA, who throughout the game had been the main feeder. Oldham did not convert their turnovers, in fact they got 2 out of 8 of them to goal. However they won the fourth quarter by 3 goals again and made sure that Oldham won every quarter. Oldham won Blackpool by 12 last game and this game by 15 so it was a good solid performance. Final score 55-40. 
 
Suzy Ashworth quote: “I was happy that we won each quarter within this game and it was definitely an improvement from the last game against Tameside. We worked better as a team and stuck to the game plan. We have a lot of work to do in training on Thursday ready for another tough game against Trafford on Sunday”.
