Netballers strike again!

Despite a full day of sport at UVHS the A team girls still had enough energy in reserve for a 12-4 win against Askam A team. You made it look so easy girls! Rotations can be quite a challenge but these girls have got every position covered: They can swap between defence and attack with ease and all are now fabulous shooters. That's the A team's  league finished with 2 wins and 2 losses. A result to be proud of as they have been playing against the best teams in the Furness area.
Team B followed up with a fabulous friendly against Askam B. Final result 10-4 to Burlington. Not bad for David v Goliath! At last the boys got a game and Ross scored some impressive goals whilst Harvey leapt everywhere in defence.  Gravel rash didn't deter Alice as she leapt to her feet and took up her marking position-well done for being so brave and determined. Carrie didn't stop to take a breath as usual and kept up the pressure in defence while scoring some great goals in attack. Megan, Eleanor and Sarah all managed to get themselves into the right place at the right time-great use of channels and determined marking. We'll done! The B team have their last match tomorrow against Dane Ghyll. If they win this one they may well have won their league (no pressure!). Good luck girls.
