County Netball Reports for Years 7, 8 and 9:
Back in November, Budehaven hosted the U14 County Netball Qualifying round, it was a pretty windy and wet day and it seemed our team played even better when it started raining! In their initial section,
Budehaven played fellow North Cornwall school Wadebridge and won 9 – 3, the second game was against Truro School and they won 11 – 5, in the third match, the winning streak continued with a 13 – 1 victory over St Ives and in the final game of the section they lost to Penryn 3 – 8. As runners up they went through to play the runners up of the other sections. They won against Mounts Bay 13 – 4, beat Richard Lander 9 – 7 and Treviglas 18 – 0, the final match of the day was against Penair with a final result of 9 – 1.

For the year 8 County Netball Tournament, the weather was positively gorgeous and the sun was shining on a rather travel weary squad, who in the early hours of the morning had just returned from their respective Madrid and Paris trips!
