Promising young netball players to compete at county High 5 Netball tournament

25 March 2010

Some of Derbyshire’s most promising young netball players will take part in a county High 5 Netball tournament at Tupton Hall School next week.

Around 200 pupils from schools across Derbyshire are due to compete in teams over three hours to be named the best in the county.

In addition they will be invited to put their shooting skills to the test with a netball shooting competition.

Each School Sports Partnership in Derbyshire has already run its own tournament, and the winning team and runner-up from each partnership final has been invited to compete at the county final on Tuesday 30 March.

Schools taking part will include Cavendish Close Junior School, Springfield Primary School, Firfield Primary School, Osmaston Primary School, Marpool Junior School, Swanwick Primary School, Tupton Primary School, Homegate Primary School and Pennine Way Junior School.

Pupils from Tupton Hall School who have undergone the Young Netball Organisers course will be on hand to umpire and lead the activities. The event is being supported through the DSSA Netball Association.
