MCCS Netball Report
Year 7 Report
Congratulations to the Year 7 girls that pulled off a great performance in 2021 MCCS Netball. They started off the season with some great wins, learning how to work together, learning new skills, and building relationships as a team. In the first game, they each played their best and started off the season with a convincing win. Ava Morgan performed outstanding work in defence. The shooters never missed and kept getting the ball through the hoop. Thanks to Sarah Morani, Bronte Arbuthnot and Niamh Kenmayr for their awesome shooting. Halfway through the season, the mid court players worked together and never missed a centre pass with their amazing skills. Great work to Georgia Sherry, Ava Grivas and Haylee Trad. Having a tough start to Game 7, our WD Lily Dehlsen intercepted their centre passes, which led to the win. When games were getting close they relied on their defence players Olivia Haddad and Bianca Magner who stopped the opposition from scoring. They made it to the Grand final which was a tough game against McAuley, their last chance to pull through with a trophy. The last 5 minutes of the game the score was even, but Woolwich pulled through with the win by four goals and came home with the trophy. What legends!

Year 10 Report
The Year 10 team had a successful season by remaining undefeated through consistent efforts and performance in every game. The team played each week at Auburn Netball Courts. There were multiple byes in the first and fourth round and the sixth game was cancelled due to wet weather. Throughout the season the team played Saint John Paul II (31-4), St Patricks Dundas (22-15) and Bethlehem College (43-4), winning each match. The semi-finals was played at Blacktown Indoor Sports Center where the team played against
McAuley Catholic School. This game was really tight during the first, second and third quarters as the team was either winning by a few or tying. However, during the last quarter the girls managed to pull through and take home a 28-23 win, sending them off to the grand final. A notable mention to the player of the match for the semi finals; Scarlett Tucker.
The grand final was played at Netball Central against rival school St. Patricks Dundas which the team had lost to in previous grand finals. However, this year they won with a score of 22-21 after an extremely challenging and tight game. The game was tied for the first 3 quarters yet the girls pulled through and managed to score a final goal in the last minute securing the win. A notable mention to the player of the match for the grand final Nina Gomez-Niewolik and a special thanks to Ms Marsh who supported the team each week at the games. Ending the season as premiers was a brilliant way to finish the Year 10s journey with MCCS netball and all the girls are extremely proud of their achievements.
