Senior First Report from our Volleyball Captain, Chloe Teng (Year 11)
This week, the Pymble Firsts team faced off against Kincoppal-Rose Bay School, and they emerged victorious, winning all three sets. Compared to last week, the team appeared more prepared and adapted effectively to the unfamiliar setting. This adjustment resulted in minimal errors during the first set, with only three missed serves. This was only the team’s second game, yet significant improvements were evident since their previous match!
The second and third sets showcased the team’s determination, with a strong emphasis on serving, particularly by Ruthia Moore (Year 10). The team capitalised on the opponent’s wavering confidence, turning it to their advantage. The players then faced a passing slump in a close second set unable to side out to the best of their potential however, this game marks the start of Pymble 1’s victories and may the girls continue the great work next week!
