Year 7 Netball Rodney @ Hibiscus Coast Netball Centre
Another early sunday for the babys of rodney reps but as usual they were all full of energy and ready for a big day of netball.
The day was full of many pleasing suprises and very tough games.
First game of the day was against Nothern Wairoa, and it was a slow start for the girls. With a bit of waking up from the coach the girls went back out to claw back 7 goals. We ended going down 10-9.
Next up we had the champions of the day North Harbour . Although going down 21-4 the girls displayed some awesome netball skills and plays. A highlight for this game was when Little Alana Santos caused a turnover and ripped the ball out of the oppositions hand who was a good foot taller than her.
The last few games of the day was great experience for the girls as they had to stand their ground against the far north teams. Apart from a few bumps and bruises the girls did very well and have come such a long way together as a team.
