Lower 4A Netball Team Earns Silver at Scottish Cup

The Lower 4A Netball team finished their Scottish Cup campaign with a silver medal in the Netball Scotland S1 Plate Competition.

Their journey began in November with 3 games against Edinburgh Schools, securing 2nd place in their pool to continue in the plate competition. After Christmas, the knockout rounds started with a 15-5 win away vs Perth Academy in the regional round. The Quarter Final was another away game, beating Lomond School 28-5. Next was the semi-final vs Holyrood Secondary School, winning 24-11 to reach the final.

After 6 months and 8 games, the girls travelled to Glasgow's Emirates Arena, home of the Strathclyde Sirens, for the final.

Their opponent was an experienced North Berwick High School team. The girls had a nervous start but fought hard, refusing to give up. After 4 quarters, they won silver medals and gained valuable experience playing on such a big stage at the performance level.

Congratulations to North Berwick High on the gold medal as new S1 Plate Champions.

Elodie received Player of the Match honours. 

The girls can be proud of their efforts, going above and beyond with extra early training sessions. Some just started netball this season, others changed positions, but showed resilience throughout.
