On a typically British day, Staffordshire finest High Five players braved the cold, wind, blue sky, clouds and a small amount of rain to compete in Stafford Netball Club’s High Five Festival.
The morning started off with 6 teams in the Year 5 and below category from Newcastle Town, Tean Valley, Fenton Manor and Stafford Netball Club. These were the lucky ones who got to play indoors for their tournament.
A player of each team was chosen for each match and the overall winner was given a High Five Netball to celebrate their achievement! Well done to Skye Whitfield from Tean Valley Tots who received a Gilbert high Five Netball.

YEAR 5 RESULTS:
Winners: Tean Valley Tots Runners Up: Fenton Manor
The 2nd category Year 6 and below saw 7 teams with the addition of Alsager Netball Club competing to be crowned festival winners.
Yet again, the matches showed some excellent play especially adhering to the footwork rule. There was some high scoring games too showing that a number of the players have a keen eye on the goal! It was a shame that weather wasn’t on our side and the matches had to return to indoors which meant less match time. Despite this all players had a great time and enjoyed the first High Five Festival of the season.
