This past weekend brought notable achievements for Francesca, Tixi, Ysabelle and Erin at the Junior County Netball Tournament at Rainham School for Girls. Tixi, Ysabelle, and Frankie’s team clinched second place in the development category, while Erin’s team triumphed in the first-team category—excellent preparation for the upcoming National Finals in Sheffield.

Congratulations to all the King’s girls who participated in the County tournament. It was great to see so many of you playing netball at such a high standard. 

Best of luck to Erin H and the Kent County Netball Club at the U16 National Finals in Sunderland this weekend. Erin will face competition from the top 18 netball clubs in the country during two intense days of play. Her U16 KCNC team has achieved remarkable success this season, winning the U16 Kent County League, securing second place in the London and South East Regional League, and claiming victory in the Kent County Tournament. Erin’s athletic talents extend beyond netball; she is also an accomplished cricketer, participating in the U15 Area Cricket programme for Kent this season.
