A successful season for St Dominic’s netball
St Dominic’s has enjoyed a successful netball season this year.
They participated in league matches, as well as tournaments around Gauteng.
The u-13A team competed in the Inter-Catholic Tournament held at Sacred Heart and were undefeated, achieving first place.
The girls were also the champions in the Inter-Dominican Tournament at Veritas College. This tournament includes Dominican schools from Gauteng, Mpumalanga and the Free State.
The league results were just as impressive.
St Dominic’s teams all finished in the top three schools in their district pool.
The A teams finishing in the top two teams were invited to the District Championship Finals.
The u-10A and u-12A teams were cordially invited and did St Dominic’s proud.
After a riveting match versus Beaulieu, the u-12A team won by one goal and made it through to the next round.
The girls fought tooth and nail in another tight game against Holy Rosary, losing by one goal, as the whistle blew just before the shooter’s ball had left her hand.
St Dominic’s was elated with the performance of its players.
The u-10A team played like real champions, winning all games but one, which pushed the players through to the final round.
In this nail-biting last match against Redhill, the girls competed for third place in the Gauteng Private Schools’ District.
They won with a convincing 13-5 victory and held their heads high as they collected their bronze medals in the prize-giving.
