On Thursday 13th February, the Barrow Hills U11A Netball Team travelled to Framlingham College in Suffolk to participate in the IAPS U11 Small Schools Netball Competition. We played a warm up game against Framlingham on the Thursday afternoon and drew 7-7. After a good night’s sleep in the hotel the girls were ready for the tournament. We had five schools in our draw and a tough section.
Cottesmore – Won 7-3
Duncombe – Lost 3-6
Langley Prep – Won 7-2
Witham Hall – Lost 2-7 (Witham Hall went on to win the tournament)
Barrow Hills finished in third place and went through to the plate competition. During the afternoon the girls had three more matches: a quarter final against St Ives which they won convincingly 12-1, a semi-final against Terrington Hall, won 10-1 and finally the plate final against The Royal which we won 5-4! Well done to all the U11 girls for playing so well throughout the trip. Beatrix (6G) was awarded player of the tournament and Verity (6R) was awarded a water bottle and talent spotted by the Director of Netball at Framlingham College.
