S2 reach Semi Finals of Glasgow Schools League Playoffs

Congratulations to the ever improving S2 Netball team who played a great match against Holyrood Sec in the Semi-Finals of the Glasgow Schools Playoffs. Holyrood Won the fixture 34-28 but our girls should take great pride in the way they played against one of the best teams in Scotland. Holyrood got to the semi-finals of the Gold Section of the Scottish Cup beating last year’s winners in the process. During the game we started very slow which allowed Holyrood to create a sizeable lead however during each of the following quarters the girls got better and better. Abbey started running the show at centre and along with Leena. Ceitidh and Rhianna they were working very hard to win the ball back at any opportunity. Orlagh at GK was winning the rebounds particularly towards the end of the game. Kerry along with Millie Soutar are working incredibly well together as shooters and this was evident throughout the game. Throughout the season the girls have improved an enormous amount. The girls were up against the best S2 team that Glasgow has produced since I've been coaching. I have been very proud of our S2 team. Their effort, attitude and determination to better their performance as a team. Next year the girls have been entered into the Scottish Cup for the first time, they will need to raise their game even higher for that competition but we welcome the challenge.
