Huge congratulations to the U19 Netball squad who reached the final of the East Midlands Plate 2025.Hosted by Repton School on Saturday 1st February, 10 of the top teams from throughout the East Midlands competed for two spots at the National Finals in March.
Sponne found themselves in a tough pool coming up against three winners of their respective County Cups with the first two games being decided with a penalty awarded on the buzzer. After four extremely close games that could have gone either way, Sponne finished third in the pool and were through to play for the Plate title.A convincing victory against Trent in the Semi Final led to Sponne once again meeting Priory whom they had drawn against in the group stages. On this occasion we were unable to sustain the pressure, finishing runner up in the Plate.
The squad was led by Phoebe (Capt) & Grace (V. Capt) With Player of the Tournament being awarded to Georgia for her workrate, game sense and shooting performance. Full Squad members: Scarlet, Georgia, Grace (VC), Lucy, Amelia, Phoebe(C), Evie, Megan, Izzy, Bea & Emily.
