Year 8 Netball Team<br />

With a skilful squad of 13, the Year 8 Netball team<br />

has had a very successful season. Training started<br />

in earnest in the Autumn term, in anticipation of the matches<br />

the following term. They played very well and won many<br />

games convincingly. In March it became tournament time,<br />

with the City and County tournaments in consecutive weeks.<br />

In the City tournament, in hurricane conditions, they fought<br />

well, beating Derby High to reach the semi-final. A week<br />

later, with more pleasant weather, despite the team playing<br />

some of the best netball of the season they narrowly missed<br />

out on getting to the semi-finals. In April, the team took<br />

part in a netball tournament in Devon where they showed<br />

some impressive skills, winning 9 out of 10 matches and<br />

drawing the other to reach the semi-finals. More recently,<br />

the team has continued their training with lunchtime<br />

sessions and I am confident that next year the team will go<br />

on to impress me even more. It has been a pleasure to be<br />

the Year 8 coach.<br />

Well done to Lucy Walker, Martha Luke, Alex Nelson, Alex<br />

Sheppard, Rachael Taplin, Amy Reynolds, Megan Patrick,<br />

Georgie O’Hare, Abbie Smith, Amrita Kaur, Charlie Lacey,<br />

Hannah Wagg and Sumanpreet Saini.<br />
