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 and Stafford Netball Club. These were the lucky ones who got to play indoors.
A player of each team was chosen by the coaches/umpires and these were given a Netball West Midlands foam hand to celebrate their achievement!
YEAR 5 RESULTS:
Winners: Newcastle Panthers
Runners Up: Stafford
