On Monday 5th November, the Under 14 Netball team participated in the annual Birmingham Schools Netball County Tournament. They made a great start winning their pool with the help of a strong defence by Grace, Lauren and Helena. The semi-final was a close game but fantastic centre court work and passes into the shooting circle by Rachel, Amy and Arya secured their spot in the finals. The final was another close game but Dhaksha, Jade and Freya remained calm and scored all of their shots while under pressure. With excitement, the whistle blew and the girls won, qualifying for Regionals next year!
