Old Priory win High Five Netball

The Plymouth and West Devon Netball League took place on Monday 30th and Tuesday 31st January 2012.  Forty teams took part over the two days playing in 8 groups in the first stage, followed by quarter final round-robin leagues culminating in semi-finals and then a final.

The eight schools which qualified for the finals were Goosewell, Stowford, Old Priory, Boringdon, Ugborough, Ermington, St. Joseph’s R.C and Drake.  The top two schools went through to semi-finals where Goosewell beat Ermington 1-0 and Old Priory beat St. Joseph’s R.C. 5-1.  The final which was Old Priory against Goosewell was very tense and a closely fought game with Old Priory coming out on top 4-2.  The 3rd/4thplay-off was equally well contested with Ermington winning 2-1.

The top four Plymouth SSP Schools from the event will now go on to represent Plymouth at the Regional School Games Event which will be held in Paignton on 7th March 2012.  These Schools are: Old Priory, Goosewell,St. Joseph’s R.C and Boringdon (who had a play off for the spot with Drake Primary).

The event was organised by Anna Clooke PE Release Teacher assisted by Danielle Ritchie both from Hele’s School.  Special thanks go to all Partnership staff who attended and also Jamie Oxley and all of the students from Marjons who gave up their time to make this event such a success.
