Saints On a Netball March

All Saints School, Horsham came through the second netball league assessment event on Thursday with flying colours and a passport to Division A status when the league starts proper next week. Three 2-0 victories against Shelley C, Southwater B and Shelley A installed one of Horsham’s smaller primary schools as quite unlikely title prospects for the real thing.

Second and third positions were effectively decided in the match between the front sides of Shelley and Southwater. It ended up two apiece but Shelley got the nod to progress upwards in the next round by virtue of scoring more goals in their first match. Shelley A went on to lose the final against the Saints whilst Southwater A took out their frustration 6-0 over their own B team to take third spot.

Shelley B beat Shelley C 2-0 to decide fifth and sixth placings. Another Horsham small school, St Mary’s, took heavy punishment, 7-0, in their first encounter with Shelley A but recovered their composure to give Shelley B a good run for their money, only going down by a single goal.
