Sunshine Girls urged to pick up the pace

National Coach Connie Francis wants the Sunshine Girls to lift their intensity as they look to rebound from Wednesday night's first test loss to England.

The Jamaicans lost the opening game 53-42 and they will do battle again on Friday at the National Indoor Sports Centre.

Debutante Jhenielle Fowler led the Sunshine Girls with 19 goals, while Romelda Aiken supported with 13 and Simone Forbes, seven.

Despite the win Coach Maggie Jackson says there is still more work to be done ahead of the second game.

The deciding second test will be played on Friday, with coverage on Hitz 92 FM.

Match time is 7.30pm
