On the 8th of July, Bromsgrove School hosted an enjoyable netball match between the Queens and the Swans. Despite some challenging weather, both teams played with great spirit and enthusiasm, making it a delightful game for everyone involved. 💛
The match began under a heavy downpour, which added an element of unpredictability to the game and made the ball insanely slippery. The Swans managed to take an early lead, ending the first quarter 9-0.
The Queens, however, kept their spirits high and continued to play with control, joy, and endless energy. 🏃🏽♀️
As the weather improved, the Queens began to find their rhythm. With Lucinda, Beth and Antonia leading the way in defence, and Amy, Frankie, and Gemma getting into the groove of shooting, the Queens started to close the gap.
Q2: Queens 8 – 14 Swans
Q3: Queens 19 – 23 Swans
Throughout the games, Sophie was our fabulous centre and Debbie worked wonders as WA 💪🏼
However, in the end, the Swans edged out the Queens with a final score of 30-27.
Despite this, the scoreline was secondary to the enjoyment of the match which was filled with laughter and great sportsmanship. 💛
Lucinda Granger (little ol’ me), GK, was awarded Player’s Player (despite falling flat on my bum!) and Beth Middleton, GD, was named Captain’s Player for her determination and positive energy – you were on fire! 🔥
