Panthers Dynamo delivered a **60–23** win over Marlow Kites in a performance that—second quarter aside—showed exactly why this squad sits proudly at the top of the table.

### ? Match Overview
With half term behind us, numbers were healthier but the squad is still carrying a few absences. As ever, the girls refused to let that hold them back. Every player stepped up, worked for each other, and put out a display full of effort, composure, and maturity.

The **through‑court attack** was sharp and connected, moving the ball with real confidence. **Defensively**, the unit was just as impressive—clean pressure, smart timing, and a calmness on the ball that kept momentum firmly in Panthers’ hands. Aside from a second quarter we’ll quietly pretend didn’t happen, it was another classy, controlled performance from a team who now expect this level from themselves.
