Intermediate Challenge Netball Tournament

T3 Wk 6

On Sunday 30th August the Yr 8 mixed netball team participated in the AMI Auckland Intermediate Challenge Netball tournament.   The weather was dodgy but thankfully we managed to miss most of the big downpours.  The team played some solid netball and were definitely put to the test as they came up against some pretty tough competition from schools such as Te Atatu Intermediate, Waiheke High School, St Cuthbert's, ANI and St Thomas' School.

The team really came together on the day and they never once gave up.  Maybe it had something to do with the incredible sideline support and all the wonderful cheerleaders.  We managed to come third in our pool which was a fantastic effort!  Mrs Key and I would like to thank not only the 8 players who gave it their all on the day but also the family and friends that braved the weather and cheered on relentlessly this great little netball team.

SPS NETBALL SUPERSTARS!

Eastern Zone Netball

Week 3 - Term 3

This week 26 Year 7 and 8s went out to the Eastern Zone Netball Tournament.

The Yr 8 girls had some tough competition with their first round game against Baradene. They were coached and managed by Chook who made some great changes throughout the day and the girls finished on a win.

The Yr 7 girls were coached by Mary and they also did a great job throughout the day. Sharon was a standout putting in more than 100% effort in all of her games.

The Yr 8 boys finished top of their pool and ended up coming 3rd overall in their grade. 

All the players put in a fantastic effort and showed great sportsmanship on the day. 

Great work teams!

Trials and a Sunday Netball Tournament

T3 Wk2

Term 3 sports has started with a bang with the boys league team trialling and training for the Eastern Zone competition.   We also had the Eastern Zone netball teams hitting the court in anticipation of their tournament in week 3 at AMI Netball courts in St Johns.

Last Sunday our Yr 6 Sylvia Ferns and Yr 7/8 Maroonettes netball teams played in an all day tournament at St Johns.  The teams played 4 to 5 games each and you can imagine how tired they were at the end of the day!  They thoroughly enjoyed themselves and a huge thanks to the wonderful parents and families that came and supported on the day.

Next week we have our Eastern Zone teams going out on their Netball (Tuesday with Mrs Key) and League (Thursday with Mr Timo).  Good luck and play hard!
