🏐 Marches Netball Triumph! 🌟

Huge congratulations to our incredible Year 10 netball team who delivered a phenomenal performance at the North Shropshire tournament.

They stormed through the group stage unbeaten, scoring a jaw-dropping 51 goals and conceding just 4. Their attacking play was fierce, their defence rock-solid, and their teamwork second to none.

In a tense semi-final against Oswestry School, the team held their nerve in extra time to clinch a dramatic win and secure a place in the final. Facing a strong Ellesmere College side, they gave it everything - just missing out on the title after a valiant battle.

🏐🔥 County Plate Tournament Highlights – Year 9 Netball Team! 🔥🏐

Our Year 9 netball team put on a fantastic display at the County Plate Tournament, kicking things off with a confident 4-2 win over HLC! 💪

In a challenging group featuring strong sides from Priory and Sir John Talbot's School, the team showed real grit and determination.

Their final match, a nail-biting 3rd place decider against Ellesmere College was end-to-end action. Marches led 3-2 at half time, but Ellesmere edged ahead in the final minutes to take the win.

🌟 Standout performances included:

Martha Keller & Millie Barton for their rock-solid defence and crucial interceptions

Lily Evans for her sharp shooting and dynamic court movement

And a huge congratulations to Laila McArdle, named Player of the Tournament for her tireless work rate, smart ball placement, and versatility across defence and Centre! 👏

A brilliant effort from the whole squad.
