š Year 8 Netball Debut!š
Our Year 8s were invited to the NMD StrongHER schools netball day organised by the Be Active coaches at Downpatrick Leisure Centre. A squad of 12 girls was selected to play in their first ever netball matches for St Louis GS!
We are so proud of every girl who took to the court. They showed great work ethic, enthusiasm, discipline and real promise throughout the day. Playing against some schools with much more established netball programmes, the team won 2 of their 5 games, a fantastic start!
At lunchtime the girls were treated to an inspirational talk by triathlete Rosie Tennyson who spoke about how sport has been instrumental in helping her through periods of adversity.
š St Louis Player of the Tournament: Alice Small š
Alice worked tirelessly in Goal Defence, making some well-timed interceptions and driving the ball up the court. Well done, Alice!
A brilliant first outing, girls. We can't wait to see how you grow from here!
