SPORTS PROGRAMME SATURDAY 23 SEPTEMBER

@CaterhamSport

Dear Parents and Players, I offer parents, players, staff and visitors a very warm welcome to Caterham School. I hope that there are many closely fought encounters today and that all pupils involved go away enriched by their physical endeavours. While striving to win is vitally important, it is not more important than the sportsmanship and friendship that make sport so special and such an integral part of the education that we offer our pupils. With that in mind I hope that all matches today are played in the positive atmosphere that they should be. I remind all of us that we are all responsible for ensuring that the pupils are supported at all times. Please let us all applaud good play from both teams, offer our congratulations to the victors but also acknowledge the efforts of the losers. I have no doubt that every pupil will give their all today and that each and every one of them deserve our praise and support.

We hope that you enjoy the hospitality on offer today at Caterham. We aim to make you feel as welcome as possible and to give you the best possible experience of the school. This is our first Saturday using the Hill Fields Pavilion, so hopefully this will add to what is already a positive experience at our school Yours in sport, Rob Clarke, Director of Sport

On Saturday all of the U12 girls will playing in our annual Open Day Netball Versatility tournament. The girls will be placed into six teams, with the aim being for each of them to play in as many different positions as possible over the course of the morning.

There will be six teams vying for the Open Day Champions title, with each team being coached by one of our senior netball players. We also have student umpires officiating at the tournament, which will be a great experience for them as they try and build up their umpiring skills.

Our senior netball coaches will be awarding a number of ‘Team-mate of the Tournament’ certificates on the day, and we are certain that competition for these prizes will be very hotlycontested. Good luck to all of the girls, and their coaches.

It is my pleasure to welcome London Oratory School and Dunottar School to Caterham for our block fixtures this weekend.

I know that all matches will be played in a superb competitive spirit, with huge amounts of respect being held for all opponents.

The very best of luck to all involved in today’s fixtures.
