EZ Netball

 

On Wednesday 18 of May the Worser Bay School Netball Team (Worser Bay Stars) went to the ASB centre for Eastern Zones Netball. We played 5 games each 18 minutes long. We got two ties, two losses and one win. We really had to use our Team Work, Leadership and Bravery to get through it. It was very fun to play netball all day even though it was hard, we had lots of fun in between the games too! Our team would like to say a big thanks to Kristy our coach and Margie our manager.

Netball: Teachers V Year 6

Leo N:

The annual year 6 netball, in summary, was intense.

(Almost) all the Autahian and Tautorians were cheering for the year 6’s, though most (which I interviewed) said that the teachers were most likely to win, due to the odds, the teachers were on about 4 while the Year 6’s were on 1. People were very hyped for the match. Halfway through the match, hope was lost for the year 6’s, but some people still had a belief in them. Then, the unpredictable happened. The year 6’s were on a streak, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5! Teachers were losing, and fast, they had to get their game up, and they did. Going from 6 to 7, nearing the end of the match. Then, came the last deciding goal, the goal worth 3 points (or so people say, which the teachers agreed with), so the people who got this goal, would advance onto the number 1 podium, while the other team, will sit on number 2. It was intense, the year 6’s had the ball, they shot about 2 times, each time it bounced off but they collected it after they had missed. The final shot was upon them, the shot, it hit the pole, and into the hoop! Everyone was shouting with joy, it truly was an amazing experience, for the viewers and the contestants. The year 6’s had won. Sure, it was not that fair, but it was all for fun, and the outcome was pretty cool too.

Kura: 

Year 6 Netball was super fun! At first the teachers were winning: 0 - 5 and then when the netball team was put on we evened it to 6 - 7 to the teachers. Apparently the last goal won or last goal 3 points so year 6´s ended up winning! If it didn't count it would've been 7 - 7.

Thank you to Deb, Tamsyn and Kristy for all of your hard work with the Netball team.

Year 4 Netball

On Tuesday, we welcomed some top coaches from Netball New Zealand to give us a taster netball coaching session. Ask your child about it: there are opportunities to get involved in netball at our school.

It was really fun and we got to play netball against each other. We practised and learnt new skills.

Year 6 V The Teachers

As part of a Worser Bay tradition the Year 6 students played the teachers at Football and Netball. 

Netball

We’re from the Worser Bay Netball Team and on Wednesday 15th of May we competed against 4 different schools: St Anthony's, Lyall Bay, Holy Cross and St Patrick's School.

We tried our hardest and managed to have fun as well as doing our best. On the first game we were all energised up and ready to play. The first team we played were really good, but so were we. We drew with a score of two. The next game we tried our hardest but lost. Next we played an amazing school and once again lost. On our last game we gathered all our energy and won. We returned back to school, tired and puffed, though we were proud.

The Miniball season has ended and Worser Bay did really well.

Gemma shared: Netball Season

The Worser Bay Pearls netball season has been great. We all would like to say a BIG thanks to the Best Netball coach Deb and Sarah, the manager and all the parents that helped.

We have all learnt a lot, how to shoot a good goal, pivot, defend, all the ways to pass, how to play and all the position.

Fun games are always the best

So don’t you think you should play a good game of netball

Wake your brain up: Netball

We did netball this morning as part of our "wake your brain up activity" this morning. We have been learning how to shoot, pass and defend.
