<i>From Naomi Bremner on Stronsay's Facebook page:</i><br>
On Saturday, our league team travelled in to take part in the Peedie
Schools Tournament \u2013 playing against teams from across all three
league levels. The girls played some of their best netball of the
season, with brilliant teamwork and determination throughout. After
an early start (and maybe a late night the night before for some of
the team!!) and the hours on the ferry, the heavy legs started to
show by the end \u2013 but the spirit never faded!<br>
It was also an emotional day as we said goodbye to Freya, playing
her final matches before moving up to secondary. The team gave her a
good send-off \u2013 carrying her off the court after her final game.
We\u2019ll miss you, Freya!<br>
Then on Sunday, it was back to Kirkwall and it was the P4/5 team\u2019s
turn \u2013 and what a day they had! Charlie and Ruaridh took on their
first full programme of competitive matches, joining teammates Ula,
Hannah and Eilidh (returning for a second day of play).<br>
And wow \u2013 they clicked straight away, going undefeated through their
six league-phase matches with a great goal tally and some remarkable
long distance goals! <br>
In the quarter-finals, they faced Firth Vikings and after a
nail-biting 2-2 draw at half time and no goals in the second half
due to the tight defending by both teams, it came down to earlier
goal tallies \u2013 and Stronsay were through to the semis!<br>
Next up: Stromness. It was a tight game, but tired legs acted
against us. Stromness took the win and headed to the final, while
Stronsay made a sprint finish for the boat!<br>
Massive well done to all the players (and support crew!) \u2013 your
teamwork and energy were incredible. <br>
Thanks also to Shae and Freya for scoring today, and to Arya and
Martha for stepping up with umpiring duties over the weekend. A
brilliant weekend all round, and that\u2019s Fun5z 2024/25 season done!
