Y9 NETBALL

SPORTS

It has been a fantastic first half term of school for our incredible Y9 Netball team, taking on other local schools in matches and tournaments. There have been some great highlights this term and we would like to applaud everyone on the squad for their hard work and dedication to Netball. The team started the term with an incredible first game on 15 September against Hampton High, beating them by 11-2. We had a great game on 6 October when we took on Turing House, only letting in two goals right at the end of the game. We came out victorious with a winning score of 32-2! Everyone was really versatile this match, playing at least two positions. A special well done goes out to Ellie for scoring goals in her debut as GA! Another great match took place on 13 October, when our squad took on Teddington. We were delighted to give some new players the opportunity to make their debut, including Ursula, Maya and Addie. The second quarter saw the team draw away, a lead that Teddington could never catch back up. We also saw some superb shooting by Anya who went on to be named player of the match! Well done team for another victory, beating our rivals 17-9. The fun doesn’t stop there for our Y9 Netball team, as they took on their first tournament on 14 October at LEH. After losing their first two games against other schools in the Richmond Borough, they worked hard to pull themselves back up the rankings, beating Teddington and Orleans Park, and drawing with Christs. They all did amazingly, in particular Anya (9PCL) who was named player of the tournament, finishing in 5th place. 21
