Queen ’ s Boys U18 Football By Alec Enkhsaikhan

The effort put into the match against Exeter School on Wednesday, was immense. The team put in a tremendous effort and showed an abundance of potential.

County Netball Tournament U16 Team - The U16 squad did exceptionally well at the tournament against strong opposition. As a team we displayed great resilience throughout the court. When opportunities arose in attack we converted a high percentage of goals. The defence took lots of timely interceptions. We need to work on out decision making & cutting our errors. Well played by all. U14 Team - A young U14 Team were incredibly resilient and hard working against some tough competition in this County tournament. A little rusty to begin with, the girls found their flow and worked well on court as a team to maintain possession and move the ball through the centre court. Captain Evvie kept spirit up as we battled through 6 games with little time to reset between matches. A huge well done to all the girls.
