STUDENTS in the Court Fields School, Wellington, Year 7 netball team were delighted to win the CVL tournament to qualify for the School Games finals at Millfield School.

They were nervous as the tournament began but once they settled qualified for the semi-finals after completing their pool games.

They beat a good Haygrove School team in the semi-finals with strong netball played by defenders and shooters.

Court Fields were disappointed to lose but delighted to have reached the final and have set their sights on returning next year.

A school spokesperson said: “Their teamwork, attitude and enthusiasm was faultless, and we are very proud of their achievements.”
