Under 16's are Netball County Champions!

We are so proud of our teams! The Under 14s performed well during the day, with their play improving throughout their games. A couple of losses saw them end the day in third place and unfortunately miss out on qualifying for the Regional Schools finals in January. 

The Ipswich School Under 19s went into the finals and played some good netball in the early rounds. Some costly mistakes in games played against some tough competition from Ipswich High School and Finborough saw them lose out on qualification by one point and finish in an agonising third place. 

Lastly, the Under 16s went into the competition as runners up from the South Suffolk qualifiers but with a will to win mentality. They came out firing from the first whistle and ended the day unbeaten; they are now the County Champions. Considering the team are all still under 15 years of age, this is a remarkable achievement. Their hard work continues as they prepare for the England Netball Eastern Regional finals in January 2023.
