Well done Clockhouse!

A huge well done to our netball team who tonight played in the borough semi-final. Although Clockhouse did come second we could not be more proud of a team who competed with the best in the borough and really did not give up to the final whistle.

To quote Mr Yarrow

'I have never seen a group of children put so much heart and soul into a game of netball. Third best in Borough and so easily could have been top 2!! To say they did me proud was an understatement! Well done Clockhouse Netball Team!!!! Special thanks to Pam Peart for her endless hard work the team wouldn't be the same without her!'.

Final score 5 - 8 to Newtons.

Well done Clockhouse! As always your team ethic, enthusiasm, commitment and sportsmanship could not have been better - we are so proud of you all! 

Thank you also for all the support from the sidelines!
