Netball News

Last night Clockhouse welcomed Dame Tipping for our first home game in the netball league.

Clockhouse put in a dominant display from start to finish and again had the opportunity to try many people in many positions.

Clockhouse worked hard and took the lead with a crisp passing move. But again the team did well defending from the front and limiting Dame Tipping opportunities to get into the Clockhouse third of the pitch. When Dame Tipping did advance any shooting opportunities were nullified immediately thanks to Niamh S and Charlie T.

A big part of the success this evening was from the speed of the passing with Victoria R and Summer S coming from their wings to work with Caitlin M to feed to the shooters. Kacey M and Verity A-G also showed their potential with a solid defensive performance.

Thank you to Dame Tipping for a game that we could learn a lot from. Such a small school but showing huge heart throughout and also to Mrs Adams for umpiring the fixture.

Clockhouse worked hard and finished the game with a 16 - 0 victory.

Scorers on the night were:
Shannon I x 6
Daisie S-E x 6
Niamh S x 2
Caitlin M x 2

This was the last Clockhouse sporting fixture before Christmas so we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the parents for their support and to all the children who have represented the school with pride! 

We go into the Christmas break undefeated in netball, girls football, and tag rugby. Therefore our girls football team are top of their league and as a result of tonight's victory and last night's walk over victory against Parklands the netball team are 15 points clear at the top of the table. Credit also to the boys football team who sit second in their respective league.

Merry Christmas and let's hope 2016 can be just as successful as 2015!
