Netball Super League 2026: Nottingham Forest condemn Leeds Rhinos to eighth consecutive defeat
Nottingham Forest made it back-to-back Netball Super League wins with a 68-63 victory over an NIC Leeds Rhinos side who fell to an eighth straight defeat.
Forest, in fourth, earned a fifth victory of the campaign to move within one point of AO Manchester Thunder in third.
“Speed is our best friend,” said Forest head coach Chelsea Pitman after the win.
“We play the game really quick with rapid transitions. That’s when we are at our best and Rhinos were really good at disrupting that.
“Kudos to them. They really took it to us. But I am really proud of us for grinding out the result.”
South Africa shooter Rolene Streutker led the scoring for Forest with 34 goals with Anya Williams adding nine while Paige Reed finished with 31 for Rhinos.
