Enthusiasm and skill!
Year 7 girls have been busy proving what a sporting lot they are with fantastic attendance at both football and netball clubs this term
We have been delighted with the turnout to Year 7 netball club this year, having five teams’ worth of players!

We were determined to get every player a game and organised multiple fixtures with local schools, as well as a huge tournament night, which involved all the teams
We also held other friendly matches and took two of our teams to the Year 7 district tournament where they played absolutely brilliantly
We have now completed our fixtures for this academic year, but we will be running a social netball club after Easter and also encourage any interested players to consider joining a local team we know many already have!
Please speak to Miss Shipley or Miss Kingston for further information
TEAM GAMES: Some of Comberton’s Year 7 girls’ football and netball teams.
The numbers attending Year 7 girls’ football have continued to increase and we now have enough players for almost three teams!
The girls have played in both the district and county competitions, reaching the latter stages in both
Their qualifier to the last eight of the district competition involved a very tense penalty shoot-out against Cambourne, who took the match to spot kicks after a last-gasp equaliser forced a 2-2 draw They next face Bottisham Grace, our goalkeeper, helped lead the team to a nail-biting victory after eight rounds of penalties
In the county quarter-finals, the team were drenched, but secured a hefty 10-1 victory to reach the semi-finals, against opponents yet to be decided We are delighted that girls’ football is continuing to grow and look forward to seeing how we get on in the rest of the season
