Netball tri-series - Cook Islands v Wales


International netball has taken centre stage recently with Rarotonga's netball tri-series.
Wales, currently ranked 10 in the world and Scotland, ranked 15, are here to play the Cook Islands.
Our current rank is 13 but unfortunately it looks as though we might be heading down.
The first match was against Wales who were very impressive, fit, fast moving, accurate passes, a classy team.
The home side matched them goal for goal for the first few minutes but as the Welsh picked up the pace the Cooks made many unforced errors.
Our defenders pulled off some great intercepts but in mid-court the opposition grabbed the ball back far too often.
It was a gutsy performance but in the end Wales were convincing winners by 65 goals to 29.
Next up Cook Islands v Scotland.
