Netballers reign victorious
WITH undefeated talent and determination, the U15 and U17 Marlins have emerged victorious in their respective grand finals at the International Netball Quad Series.
Both teams clinched the prestigious trophies, showcasing their exceptional skills and sportsmanship on an international stage.
The three-day tournament saw the best teams from Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Australia come together to compete, with five young women from the region joining the team.
Sophie Withers, Maddie Argent, Jessica Reedman, Louise Seawright, Silvienne Poggioli, and Jasmine Bowe all competed at their highest standards and took home the win.
Argent said she was proud of her and her team’s performance and said she was keen to do it again.
“Going to Singapore to play for Marlin Coast netball is an opportunity I will always be grateful for with special friendships formed,” she said.
“We experienced a few hurdles during our time away, such as illness and rain holding up training, but still managed to work through it and pull in some wins.
“The competition was tough and fast-paced, but we played hard and worked as a team, leading us to victory.”
