Hellesdon Belles beat league leaders Costessey
Costessey 0, Hellesdon Belles
The Belles were at league leaders Costessey on a bitterly cold Sunday lunchtime.

The Belles continued to press but it stayed 1-0 at half time.
The Belles also welcomed back Vicky Sherwood, with her and Kenna coming on and Oli going up front, they were denied a penalty for hand-ball in the second half.
