Netball Results - 8th September 2014

In the final match of the season, the Wentworth team came dressed as superheroes – and they played like superheroes! Despite having to alter positions, every player upped their game, with energy to spare for the dance-off in the middle of the match. The final score was 20:1 to Wentworth, with Matthew Brabant named as Player of the Day. Thanks to Millie for helping out and also to Paige who, despite being unable to play due to injury, nevertheless turned up in superhero costume to cheer her teammates on! Finally, the whole team would like to thank Olivia and Greer for their coaching, encouragement and support throughout the season.

Netball Results - 1st September 2014

Wentworth was up against an experienced Y6 team this week and found the challenge tough. There were a number of excellent players on the opposing side who caused problems for our players. Following a change of positions at half time, Wentworth began to get into the match and resumed some of their usual fast flowing game, although they had left themselves too much to do and the final result was in Stanmore Bay’s favour. Player of the Day was Oliver Willis, for his energy and speed in marking and intercepting.

Netball Results - 25th August 2014

Netball
The netball squad just keeps on getting better. The opponents this week were the Kingsway Reds who, although they played well, could not match the Wentworth team in agility, passing or shooting. When watching our team play, it is difficult to believe that at the start of this season, they were newcomers to the sport, as they move the ball around the court with speed and accuracy. The final score was a well-deserved 9:0 to Wentworth and the Player of the Day was Jon Sancto-Jones, who was pivotal in defence, letting nothing past him. (C Sancto)

Netball Results 30th June 2014

Another amazing performance, with a great win of 8 to 4 against Whangaparaoa.  The children played extremely well using the whole court.  They have all improved immensely from the first game.  Savannah and Blake make a dynamic duo in the goal circle and Heidi is a little pocket rocket in the centre position.  Orion had the game of the season earning player of the day.

Netball Results 23 June 2014

What a spectacular netball game the children had on Thursday evening with a win against Wainui of 11 to 2.  They all played extremely well .  Thank you to all the parents encouraging the children, they certainly rise to the positive feedback from you all.  Olivia and Greer are doing a great job with coaching the children.  They are very aware of each weeks focus and the team are taking it on board and putting it into practice.    Player of the day was Jon Sancto-Jones.

Netball Results 16th June 2014

The children played their little hearts out on Thursday night in the pouring rain.  The ball was very slippery and they found it hard to keep their hands on it.  They played Stella Maris who were a great team with an amazing shooter.  Unfortunately we lost 13 to 1 we just couldn’t get the ball down our end and score.  Many lessons were learnt which will be worked on this week in practice.  Player of the day was Ethan Smith.

Wow! Wentworth was back on winning form against the Stella Flyers with an impressive display of passing, positioning and intercepting. Each player created spaces and opportunities and the end result of 9:0 was well-deserved. Player of the Day was Poppy Sancto-Jones for her impenetrable defence.

Netball Results 4th June 2014

Wentworth played up a grade this week after impressing everyone watching last week. They put on a strong performance but found the opposition tough to beat. Nevertheless, it was an exciting match with determined attacking and some well-timed interceptions. Player of the Day was Savannah Marston-Fergusson for keeping calm when shooting under pressure – and a special mention must go to the opposition’s Goal Shooter – Wentworth’s Eva Wagner – who was fast and accurate.

Netball Results 26th May 2014

An incredible game from the Wentworth team, with every player contributing to a well-deserved victory against Kingsway Red. Passing and movement around the court was fast and fluid, defence was determined and attempts at scoring were deadly and accurate. It was a pleasure to watch the team in only their third match. The final score was 11:2 and player of the day was Heidi McAlpine, who worked tremendously hard in the Centre role. (C Sancto)

Netball Results - May 19

The netballers were in fine form this week with some excellent passing and positioning. With Y6 in Wellington, the Y5 team members proved that they could handle anything the opposition threw at them and, although they did not win, they showed that this is going to be a team to be reckoned with! Many thanks to the SGH girls who stepped in to support us this week. Player of the Day was Matthew Brabant, scoring in the second half after swapping from defence to attack.
