NETBALL GIRLS TAKE SIXTH PLACE IN NEW ZEALAND A fantastic effort by our Premier netball girls saw them place sixth in New Zealand at the NZSS competition held in Nelson during the holidays! Led by coach (and former Avondale College alumna) Rachel Rasmussen, this was the first time Avondale had made it to Nationals since 2014. The girls rose superbly to the occasion, winning 3 of their 7 matches against the country's very best teams. Congratulations to all the girls who represented the College and themselves so well both on and off the court.
