Carn Brea Storm’s Under-16 Hurricanes continued where they left off in the University of Gloucestershire South West Regional League when they comfortably beat Somerset qualifiers, Chilcompton at a noisy Carn Brea.

The Hurricanes, who are representing Cornwall in the league, were playing their first home game of the campaign and allowed the visitors the first goal but then never looked back as they powered to a 65-25 win in front of some passionate home support.

Despite the slow start when Storm failed to score for the first 90 seconds, the home team held a comfortable 15-6 lead at the first quarter break.

Thomas was replaced by Hollie Coles in the second quarter as Storm looked to build on their lead.

Martha Hilliard at centre was having a superb game and reached numerous high balls to turnover possession allowing Storm to keep the pressure on the visitors.

Storm added a further 16 goals in the second quarter to lead 31-13 at half time.

Coles was replaced by Laura Budd at wing attack and Evie-Mai Hagger switched to goal defence with Becky Pearse moving to goal keeper.

With the wonderfully, noisy crowd right behind them Storm surged forward and took the next quarter 17-6 after some great defensive work from Hagger, Pearse and Holly Filkins at wing defence.

Thomas came back on in the final quarter and with Hilliard now running the centre court Storm added a further 17 goals as shooters Rebecca Hocking and Laura Butler rounded off a wonderful team performance.

It means Storm have made the perfect start to the season recording two wins in their opening two games.

Storm's next U16 Regional League game is against Exeter, who are also unbeaten, on Sunday, December 4. The match takes place at Carn Brea Leisure Centre with a 1:30pm start.
