OR v School Commemoration Day Netball Match

Saturday saw another well fought OR v School Netball match played on School House Court. 

The game was officiated by Mrs McIntyre and Miss Costello. School had an abundance of talent on the court with Cara Jackson making her first appearance for the senior side. The game was played with passion from both sides not wanting to give an inch.

Maddie Holden managed the OR team well making sure everyone played in their preferred positions at some point during the game. Due to the excessive heat the quarters were cut to 8 minutes and the officials ensured plenty of water breaks. 

This was a fantastic match with the ORs just edging the game 18-17. Players of the match went to Molly Evans representing the School and Mirren Blow representing the ORs.
