SPORTS REPORT 19/20 MARCH
The week-end programme began with the U8 Netball and Football teams travelling to St.Hugh’s Prep School, Woodhall Spa.
The Year 3 girls, given terrific support by their parents, put in an exciting and most determined performance. In the first quarter the score remained at 0-0, although Witham had most of the possession. However, Annabel Tollemache led the way in the next two quarters with 5 fantastic goals in ten minutes! In the final quarter Poppy Chatterton and Sophia Ktori both scored giving Witham a 7-0 win. Superb marking and athletic interceptions from Felicity Bridges Webb, Catherine Swanston and Willow Weatherby started off many attacking moves down the court, and Hattie Grace was feisty and fast up and down the centre.
The U8A Football team showed some excellent discipline in both attack and defence from Witham showed the real difference between the two sides. Two very good goals from Leo Cox and Alex Atkin saw the score 2-0 at half time. Two further well worked goals finished superbly by Joseph Fox brought the score to 4-0 at full time. The U8B team also produced an excellent performance, winning 3-0, with all the goals scored by the captain Henry Saunders Watson.
On Saturday morning the U10 Girls Netball team competed in the Stamford Junior School Netball Tournament.The side played very well in defeating Stamford Junior School 4-3, Grantham Prep School 2-1, Peterborough High School 3-0, Stoneygate 5-2 and Copthill 4-0. The girls had a tough first game against Laxton and narrowly went down 1-2. The team also lost to Bedford 1-2, Spratton 0-2 and Kimbolton 3-5. This led to Witham finishing 4th overall. A special mention goes to Millicent Pardoe and Rosie Dawes for their excellent interceptions and defence work, also to Tara Lloyd for commitment and hard work to the team. The team consisted of Imogen Lee, Ella Dupree, Saskia Norton, Olivia Pepper, Millie Coward, Tara Lloyd, Millicent Pardoe and Rosie Dawes.
