Lunchtime Sport Netball

The Room 5 Netball team has won all their pool games to qualify for the semi-finals, but stumbled 7-6 against Room 18 in their run to the final. The team dominated the game but couldn't turn all the possession into enough goals. The squad for the tournament was Kayla Polley, Eden French-Putu, Jaimie Jefferson, Tayla Lewis-Devlyn, Aaria Pene, Anna Butcher, Sheridan Tuimaseve, Kainoa Thomas, Ezra Sa'u and Sheldon Rogers.
