Shade’s national teammate, Kayla Taylor, increased the lead, scoring seven minutes before the end of the first half.
One minute after the interval, Elizabeth Ng Wai notched the fourth item to put the match out of the reach of Princes Town.
Stoute defending by national senior team cricketer, Brittney Cooper, restricted Debe’s scoring until Patrice Vincent broke through to score the fifth goal in the 47th minute.
