The Bernard Park courts were a hive of activity as Netball Bermuda’s Summer League season officially moved into gear with a high-scoring opening round.
Two matches headlined the Women’s division, with the BDA College Chargers making an early statement of intent.
The Chargers powered past Tropical Storm thanks to a standout performance from MVP Sydney Santos, who clinical finishing saw her rack up 10 goals. She was well-supported by Best Attacker Jaelyn Rewan-Lambert, who contributed eight goals to the tally. Chelsea Almeida (2) and Ajia Darrell-Marsh (1) rounded out the scoring, while Keyahnee Burgess anchored the backline as Best Defender.
Tropical Storm’s resistance was led by Best Attacker Diyah Steede, who accounted for seven of their eight goals. Despite the scoreline, Journee Belboda earned MVP honours for the Storm, with Ranique Barker recognised as the side's top defender.
In the other Women's clash, Devonshire Recreation Club proved too strong for the Phoenix Blaze. Charlene Bogle Gomez spearheaded the attack with nine goals, followed by a balanced scoring effort from Miesha Greaves (Best Attacker) 6 goals, Kristin Holman 5 goals, Zakiyah Durham 3 goals, and Kessiah Jackson 2 goals.
Demiqua Daniels was named MVP for Devonshire, while Imani Smith took home the Best Defender award. For the Phoenix Blaze, Danielle Raynor matched the game-high with nine goals, but lacked sufficient support despite an MVP effort from Taylor Washington.
The 5/5 Coed Division provided the most fireworks of the day, producing a combined 68 goals across just two fixtures.
The Atlantic Aces dominated the opener, led by a prolific Jasmine Mapp. The MVP found the net 18 times in a shooting masterclass. Josh Martin added seven goals to the rout, while Kyle Godfrey and Sherika Burgess were named Best Attacker and Best Defender respectively. Somerset's Simeon Burrows stood out in defeat, earning both MVP and Best Attacker nods.
The highest score of the day belonged to the Storm Chasers, who dismantled the Allshore Ballers. Antoine Williams mirrored the division's top scoring feat with 18 goals to earn MVP honours.
In a notable crossover of sporting talent, FIFA Referee Amaury Majors traded the football pitch for the netball court, earning the Best Defender award for the Chasers. Ebonie Cox was the bright spot for Allshore, netting seven of their eight goals.
