On Wednesday, 14th of October, the TWGGS U19 netball team travelled to Rochester to compete in the Kent Schools County Netball Tournament made up of 34 teams. The day got off to a great start with a draw of 6-6 against Weald of Kent Grammar School and wins of 8-2 to Sutton Valence School and 8-1 to Chislehurst and Sidcup Grammar School. Despite the short matches, everyone fought hard to give the opposing teams a challenge. We ended the morning having come top of our group and then enjoyed a quick lunch. In the afternoon we faced a harder pool, with the top two teams qualifying through. We started with an incredible win of 10-3 against Sydenham High School with the whole team playing admirably. Our match against Highworth Grammar School was slightly more challenging (who ended up qualifying) and unfortunately lost 6-7. This match was followed by another tough match against Walthamstow Hall who beat us 7-11. We finished the afternoon on a high, winning our next three games and securing third place in our pool. Unfortunately, this wasn’t enough to qualify for the finals, but we had a fantastic time working together as a team and sharing plenty of laughs along the way. Well done to all the players for their efforts, and a big thank you to Mrs Haskett and Miss Withers for accompanying us and cheering us on from the sidelines! Lizzie W, U6G and Niamh D, L6B
