THE LION'S DEN U18 FOBISIA Netball Tournament 2023 The U18 FOBISIA Netball Competition at Alice Smith School, Kuala Lumpur, marked an exciting opportunity for our players, representing our school in their first overseas netball tournament for a number of years. Tanglin entered two teams into the competition, and the results were nothing short of spectacular. Both teams dominated on day 1, winning all their games and securing the top positions in their respective pools. On day 2, the competition intensified as both teams exhibited incredible determination and skill in the Cup placing round. Despite facing injury challenges, our Tanglin B Team demonstrated incredible grit and determination, clinching a convincing victory in their final match and securing an impressive 5th position out of 16 schools. The excitement continued with Tanglin A Team advancing to the Cup Finals against Dulwich. In a closely contested match, our A Team showcased exceptional netball skills, drawing the game to a tense 8-8 with just 2 minutes to go. Ultimately, Dulwich secured the win with a final score of 11-9, placing our Tanglin A Team in a well-deserved 2nd position. This weekend was not only about the competition but also about the spirit of teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to both Tanglin Netball Teams for their outstanding performances on and off the court. Your hard work and dedication truly shine through. Well done, Team Tanglin!
