Dainfern College netball teams impressed in the recently concluded Fast Fives Netball league, with one team placing first.
The league took place at St Stithians College from September to October 14 and saw three of the school’s teams take part. The Dainfern Cubs, Dainfern Pride and Dainfern Lions were the U14, U15 and U17 teams respectively.
The school expressed immense pride in the Dainfern Pride players consisting of U15 players Molly Horan, Siphelele Makhathini, Gemma Young, Hannah Wells, Erin Tomlinson, Lilia Geyer, Justine Thom, and Isabella Hardy for placing first in the junior league after remaining undefeated. The U17 and U14 teams placed fifth in the senior league and sixth in the junior league respectively.
Netball coach Carmen Enslin said being back on the courts and watching the players grow weekly had been a massive sporting highlight.
“It was amazing to see the commitment the girls displayed. They were willing to give up their Thursday evenings for the benefit of their teams and Dainfern College, often playing multiple games in one evening.
“A special mention must go to the U15 girls who won all their games, and were always willing to help out the U17 team when their team numbers were low.”
The college extended their congratulations to the coaches including Enslin, Jocelyn Bretherick and Ashleigh Baartman and the three teams.
