Congratulations to our Year 8 Netball team, who have completed a clean sweep of tournament victories for Ryedale School this year. Miss Middleton provides a brief report on the success below:

The Year 8 Netball Partnership Tournament was held on Tuesday the 5th of March at Malton. We took an A and B team (A team came 1st and B team came 4th). Both teams played very well and had great sportsmanship; matches were 10 minutes each way. The B team had an impressive win against Eskdale 10-0! The A team won all of their matches; overall they scored 79 goals (Thanks to Abi Smith (GA) and Rosie Preston (GS)), and only conceded 6, with strong defence, the ball was hardly in our defending third. The A team beat Eskdale 31-0, Malton 19-1, Lady Lumley’s 16-2 and the Ryedale B team 13-3. All girls played exceptionally well. Both teams wish to carry on success and play even better netball in future matches.
