Regional Netball Championships

What a team! Congratulations to our superstar netballers who represented Rolling Hills at the Eastern Metropolitan Region Netball Championships on Tuesday the 16th of August. The girls played extremely well together for their 3 pool matches to make it to the semi-finals. They won their semi by 2 goals and played against St James in the Grand Final. After a huge day, the girls narrowly missed out on the win. What an outstanding achievement to make it to this level of competition and to finish runners up! 

 

Thank you once again to Cass Kinloch for coaching the girls and to Nicole Donnelly and all the families and friends who supported the girls on the day. Congratulations Amber, Chloe, Jazz, Lacey, Lily, Olivia, Ryley and Zoe, we are so proud of you!
