Student Report
On 25 February the EDSC Year 11 boys netball team competed at Ringwood Rings. We may not have secured any wins, but we walked away with an unforgettable experience. Facing tough competition, we pushed ourselves to the limit and played our best in every match. Despite the losses, we kept our spirits high, enjoyed the challenge, and supported each other throughout the day. The tournament was a great opportunity to test our skills against strong teams, and while the scoreboard wasn’t in our favour, the fun, teamwork, and effort we put in made it all worthwhile.
