fantastic start to netball league

The Year 8 girls had a fantastic start to their netball league. The A-Team played Parkstone B in their first match and were fantastic. They started the game with nerves and dread, thinking that they were going to get beat by Parkstone, because historically this has always been the case. However, from the start, they were sharp, agile at picking up loose balls and making interceptions. Hettie’s shooting was spot-on, not missing a goal, they beat Parkstone B 7-4. The next game was Parkstone A, and although they lost this game, Parkstone would normally run away with the game, this certainly did not happen. We put up a good fight, and did not get annihilated. The girls should be very proud of their performance, they are starting to gel as a team, and play lovely flowing netball.

The B team really improved, they got their centre passes out beautifully, did very little footwork, and from being 2 -0 down at half-time to Lytchett, turned the game around, and won 3 -2. Great shooting from Katelyn. In their second game, they played Allenbourne and again did lovely passing, good defending, great interceptions from Emilia led to them running away with the game and beating Alllenbourne comfortably 5-0. A great start! 

They are all a lovely group of girls, who encourage each other, and always give 100%, onwards and upwards!!! The players of the matches were Hetty, and Emilia.    Miss Davies
