Sion secures title at Roedean

SCHOOLS from all over Sussex converged on Roedean for the Sussex Independent Schools' Netball Tournament.

In spite of it being a rather wet and blustery morning, the under-15 netball team from Our Lady of Sion School in Worthing played some excellent netball and won its section.

The team won all its pool games and then beat St Bedes 4-1 in the semi-final.

The final was a repeat of the showdowns of the previous two years, with the Sion team playing against Brighton College.

It was a nailbiting match and went to extra time.

In the last few minutes of the game, Sion scored to win 6-5. It was a tremendous team effort with some brilliant defensive play.

The team have also been successful in the Sussex Knock-out Cup, which is a contest for all schools in Sussex.

They are through to the final of this competition.
