London Pulse will be seeking their revenge over fellow Netball Super League title contenders Loughborough Lightning this Sunday (May 3, first pass: 6pm) at Stratford’s Copper Box Arena.
The glamorous pink and blacks also have the opportunity to take over top spot from the East Midlanders and also secure a four-team end of season play-off place if they can defeat them by 11 goals or more.
Earlier in the season Lightning erased the disappointment of losing to Pulse in 2025 Netball Super League Grand Final by posting a 68-61 victory at Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena.
Last Saturday Pulse, head coached by Sam Bird, stretched their winning streak to six matches after sweeping aside bottom side Birmingham Panthers 61-35 at Worcester Arena.
Seventeen-year-old centre Gracie Smith deservedly got the Experience Kissimmee Player of the Match after creating 30 feeds, seven gains and five deflections.
Sophie Kelly slotted eight Amex Super Shots from her 10 goals while Olivia Tchine topped the scoring charts with 19 goals.
Loughborough Lightning, who are currently top of the NSL standings on 27 points and ahead of second place Pulse who are on 24, remain unbeaten after defeating ninth place LexisNexis Dragons 82-62 in Cardiff.
Trinidad & Tobago international Samantha Wallace-Joseph fired in 46 goals for the Leicestershire-based University outfit.
