St. Vincent and the Grenadines must be the most disappointed team in the AFNA 2008 Championships.Playing with home court advantage, this former CNA and OECS Champion's performance left a lot to be desired to the dismay of their fans.
They went into the archives and brought out Skiddy Francis-Crick, a national netball legend, Francis Crick however looked better on paper than on the court.
The only victory that they could swing was against Canada on the first day. Maybe even this script might have been different if they had met the steadily improved Canadian team later in the competition.
Stats- St. Vincent scored 179 goals had 231 scored against, had 228 attempts and 303 attempts against. Their goal difference was -52 and goal average 0.77 with an accuracy of 78.51. They came out of the competition in 5th position with just 2 points.
Skiddy Francis Crick however managed to finish 3rd overall in the tournament shooters. Playing mostly half of the games or a quarter in some instances she scored 59 of 69 attempts for her 85.51% accuracy.
St. Vincent had no other shooters in the top ten but Leena Lewis and Joanna Christopher were 12th and 13th overall respectively.
