GSA Netball Tour

On Friday 23 September the Year 8 and Year 9 Netball teams travelled to Condover Hall in Shrewsbury to take part in the GSA Netball Tournament against 20 other GSA schools.

The tournament ran over a weekend and provided the girls with the perfect opportunity to develop their skills both on and off the court.  Not only did the teams play in competitive matches on both Saturday and Sunday, but they also took part in activities such as abseiling and laser-tag. A highlight of the weekend was meeting two members of the England Netball team, Pamela Cookey and Sara Bayman, who gave the girls great tips on how to improve their game in the future.

At the end of the tournament Eloise W was named Year 8 player of the Tournament by Sara Bayman.

Phoebe H (Year 9) said “It was a very exciting, jam-packed weekend and a great learning experience for us all.  There was lots of great netball being played and, as the captain, I was very proud of the whole team.”

Eloise W (Year 8) said “The netball tour was a great experience for our team and we can't wait for the season to get started.”
