SPORTS NEWS: WAA’s Invincibles rocket up the netball league

21st April 2012, by WAA

The ladies of WAA’s two netball teams have got their game faces on this season.

This year marked the teams’ first foray into the Midlands League - and they began by sending a clear signal of intent, going on an unbeaten run in the Winter League that lasted the season. 

As a result, the WAA First Team finished top of its division, with the newly formed Second Team coming 2nd in its league. Both teams have been awarded promotion - in the First Team’s case, for the second year running - making them definite ones to watch. 

We spoke to Lisa Reeves, Wing Attack, who said: “This shows how far we’ve come in the last three years. Thanks to coaching support from Simone Robinson, we’ve taken the league by storm - but we’re still just playing every match as it comes, so let’s hope we can keep up our winning form.”

So, what next for the girls? The Summer League kicked off on the 18th April - with WAA continuing their winning ways, with a 70-2 victory. 

Given the summer of sport that’s on the way, can we expect Team GB’s exploits to have the same success? Time will tell...
