There's a bitter breeze in the air but our U11A Netball team did not care. For in that band of burgundy and navy they would secure victory in the annual Pelican Cup with a string of ruthless performances.
A tournament that attracted so many to the Jubilee Ground, 12 other schools ventured to the coast to take part in the event, with the hosts placing 1st in their pool after the initial batch of fixtures.
Full of verve and vigour, they swiftly progressed to the final, determined to seal their fate. It was a close final, too; nails bitten from the nearby touchline, yet as the final whistle echoed off the South Downs, it was Brighton College who took home the silverware.
Testament to their superb shooting and dogged defending, this was a memorable afternoon for our sports department who have worked so hard to achieve this title.
Fabulous work from all involved!
