The Mount’s Amazing Netballers Win Two Trophies in One Week
Bravo! Mount Netballers had much to celebrate before Easter and will soon need a larger trophy cabinet.
Firstly, the U15 team claimed victory in the York Schools Netball League.
An exciting, end-to-end match saw The Mount take a convincing victory against Bootham School. The team will soon go on to represent York in the regional competition:
Not to be left behind, the very next day, the U18 team won the Silcoates Invitational Tournament in an exciting match.
Match report from player, Berlin:
“In a thrilling display of skill and determination, The Mount girls U18 team displayed their exceptional talent and cohesive teamwork. From the opening whistle, the girls set the tone, demonstrating their superior ball control and strategic positioning, taking a win on our first game.
Their unwavering determination and resilience were evident as they countered every challenge thrown their way, drawing our second game, before winning our final two games.
As the final whistle blew, the scoreboard confirmed The Mount School’s overall win of the netball tournament. Congratulations to The Mount U18s team on their well-deserved victory!”
Miss Newman and Mrs
Greenwood were delighted with both teams. ‘We are so immensely proud of these talented teams. We look forward to seeing what these champions can achieve next. What a week!”
In the same week, the U12s also made it to the York Schools Netball League semi-finals and should also be congratulated for a valiant effort!
