Integrated Cup Finals
Congratulations to both the Junior and Senior netball teams who made it to the N. Ireland Integrated Netball finals this month. The competition was played in a knock out fashion and both teams were delighted to be representing the school at the finals held at Lagan College.
Although both teams were nervous they put up a superb fight, demonstrating both a high skill level and determination to succeed. The Junior team played Strangford College in a very close fought match only losing in the final quarter by 2 goals scored in the final few minutes. The senior team played Lagan College who again fought hard, only to be beaten by a superb level of skill demonstrated by their opponents. Special mention goes to Lauren McDowell and Michelle Courts who played in both matches without a drop in effort or determination!
Well done to both teams for their achievements.
NEBSSA League Finals
Congratulations to the Minor netball team who won all of their local league matches and made it through to the final of the NEBSSA league. The finals took place in Magherafelt on Monday 24th March. Their opponents were Magherafelt High School but their home advantage did not let our team feel any nerves. The first quarter saw both teams equal in goals but a surge in determination by their opponents saw them take a lead in the second quarter. The final result saw our girls finish in second place after a gruelling four quarters.
Well done to the team who proudly displayed their medals on the long journey home!
