Tennis
Congratulations to the Year 10 Tennis team who are now through to the Nicola Mabbitt trophy finals. A super achievement on a very hot day.
Well done to Phoebe, Lily, Ava and Annabel who beat Queenswood! A super result!
Cricket
Our U15s had a great day of cricket at St Margaretsbury CC. The team was made up of all Year 9s due to the Year 10 exams so they faced mostly older opponents and some experienced cricketers in their matches.
Considering that only one of our girls plays cricket outside of school, they performed brilliantly on an extremely hot day. They definitely won the tournament for effort, commitment, teamwork and sportsmanship. A lovely group of girls to spend the day with and a great water fight at the end!
Coaches Player of the Tournament was Matilda P.
Well done to all the girls!
Rounders
Year 9 & 10
Two lovely games for the Year 9 and 10 teams against John Warner.
Excellent batting and brilliant anticipation and accuracy in the field, gave us convincing score lines. Well done team!
Year 9s won 11 – 4 : Player of the Match was Emma
Year 10s won 13 – 8 1/2 : Player of the Match was Ruby
Year 8
Massive well done to the Year 8 Rounders team who finished joint first at the district tournament.
It took them the first game to get properly warmed up and then there was no stopping them! Some awesome hits, fielding and catches!! They played some super rounders with wins against John Warner (8 rounders to 3.5), Goffs A (5.5 rounders to 3) Robert Barclay (5.5-2.5), Chauncy (7 rounders to 1) and Goffs B (8.5-2.5). The one loss was in their first match to SB where they lost 4 rounders to 2.5. Well done all of you!
Star Player was Aina who hit some amazing balls to score several rounders, and caught several big hitters out whilst deep fielding!
