Schools Cup Netball

By | News, Sport | No Comments

A huge congratulations to all our netball teams who competed last week over two days and at two different locations!

First, our girls’ teams—Year 7, Year 7 & 8, Year 9, and Year 10—spent the day in Newcastle. Despite challenging weather and playing seven rounds of netball, the rain didn’t dampen their spirits. Each team secured a win or two and faced some incredibly close games that didn’t quite go our way. Overall, the girls had a fantastic time with friends and enjoyed playing the sport they love.

On Friday, our boys’ teams took to the courts in Gosford. With much better weather, they had their best performance yet in boys’ netball. Special congratulations to the Year 10 team for finishing 3rd overall!

Thank you to all our coaches for their time and dedication these teams and our student umpires, we could not have entered these teams without your help. Thank you.
