U15A VII
P8 / W7 / D0 / L1
This has been a fantastic season for
the U15A netball squad, with just a 5
goal deficit against a very strong (and
extremely tall!) Yarm team standing in
the way of an unbeaten season.
Ruby Remblance and Jessica McDowell
have formed an extremely strong
shooting partnership, which has
continued to improve throughout the
season. A goal difference of well over
100 is testament to their accuracy. Lucy
Hatfield at centre has been invaluable.
Her effort in all areas of the court is
second to none and her opposite players
have all struggled to keep up with her
fast paced playing style. Evie Taggart
U15B VII
P4 / W2 / D0 / L2
A mixed season for the U15B’s Playing
four and winning half their matches,
with two games sadly been cancelled.
The season started strongly with a
convincing win away V a strong Queen
Mary’s side. Then Losses to Hymers
and Queen Margaret’s followed, both
high class opponents who overpowered
and Amy Jordan have been solid in
defence, determining the result of many
of our fixtures with their commitment
to disrupting the opposition’s attacking
play. In all but one of the victories, the
opposition have scored less than 10 goals.
With the addition of Maddie and Evie
Parkinson, playing up from 3rd year,
this is a team with a huge amount
of talent across all positions. Evie’s
versatility and willingness to play either
GA or GD, and make a massive impact
in either position, has been a huge asset.
Maddie’s attitude and performances
week in, week out, have been flawless.
She reads the game with ease and has
become known for her fantastic feeds
into the attacking circle.

P8 / W4 / D0 / L4
A mixed season for the girls where a
few more wins would have been nice
to reflect the hard work they have put
in. All girls have been committed to
training and developing their play.
Over the season, we have worked on our
movement and communication up and
down the court and especially within the
D. They worked hard for their wins in
particular at Scarborough College with
a nail biting finish 7-6 to us! Leadership
THE POCKLINGTONIAN
All seven wins have been comprehensive,
often by at least 20 goals, and have
therefore allowed the girls to develop
their skills in unfamiliar positions. I am
excited to see the impact these girls will
have on senior netball and look forward
to the prospect of them entering the U16
National Schools Netball competition
next year.
