U14s defeat Bourne Grammar School to win the Superzone Netball Final
Our Under 14 Girls Netball Team ended their season on the ultimate high as they were crowned the Superzone Netball Champions after defeating Bourne Grammar School 16-15 in an incredibly tense final.
Both teams entered the fixture having won their respective leagues to see who will come out as the top team in the area. On the way to the final, Giles Academy had won all four of their matches scoring an incredible 86 goals and only conceded 5 goals.
From the first whistle, the match was end-to-end as both sides produced outstanding attacking play and fierce defensive pressure. The girls started strongly leading the first quarter by 7-2 and they kept themselves in front at the end of each quarter by showing remarkable composure and resilience. They held their nerves right up until the end by securing a dramatic one goal victory and claim the Superzone title.
This was a phenomenal achievement and a brilliant reflection of the team’s growth, determination and togetherness. The Players Player of the Match as selected by the opposition was Florence Mackay.
Mrs Cooper, Teacher of PE and all of the PE staff are immensely proud of the team and also deserve credit for bringing this special group of students together.
