Netball The strength in depth demonstrated across the 2018/19 netball season has been exceptional. Once again all year groups have demonstrated tremendous character in their approach towards netball season. History was made this year, when for the first time all three St Peter’s teams U14, U16 and U19 reached the Regional Finals in the National Schools Competition. A very proud achievement considering tournaments were played out of season.
“For the first time all three St Peter’s teams U14, U16 and U19 reached the Regional Finals in the National Schools Competition.” A special mention should go to the U14s, who fell just short of reaching National Finals. The potential on show that day from the U14 team was outstanding. They battled many experienced sides in a feat of sheer stamina and determination to finish 3rd overall. A real credit to the team’s tenacious attitude and determination. Such an inspiring achievement from such a young side, who certainly have a very promising future ahead.
FIRST VII It was yet another formidable season for the 1st VII. They were patient yet decisive in their approach this year, with their time and energy being fully devoted towards instilling a never give up culture that would ultimately help lead to their success this year.
