A few weeks ago we hosted the Year 7 Netball Gala Day at Thomas Hassall and it was a great day for our students and the visiting schools to use our facilities and enjoy a great day of competition.
It was the first time for many of the girls in the team to play together and they did very well under Miss Tikeri and Coach Jamin. The team took some time to warm up to the game and the style of each player but as the day went on their confidence increased and they supported each other and the experience of players like Ava, Olyvia and Kaia supported some new players like Elyssa and Helena. They finished second in their pool and faced St Luke’s in the semi finals which was a very tight game in the first half. The girls then played The Illawarra Grammar School and overall finished 4th at the NASSA Gala Day. This was a great experience for some of the girls and we look forward to them joining the netball programme at school next year to improve their skills.
