A sunny and would you believe a dry day on Saturday the 27th June 2015 saw 9 teams from schools in the Region play the annual High 5’s tournament at Soar Valley College. Each team playing each other in a round robin, made for a fantastic day of High 5’s netball which took some 5 hours to complete with only the volunteers flagging towards the end, the players still raring to go. With a total of 8 teams playing in each round, no one left before the end presentation which saw St Botolph’s from Lincolnshire top the table, receive medals and a trophy and Oakwood from Derbyshire a worthy second place receiving their medals. All the players left with a certificate for the day presented by Kathy Stripp, Leicestershire Chair and Tournament Organiser along with Master of Ceremonies Val Kindred. A great day was had by all. 1st St Botolphs C of E 2nd Oakwood Junior 3rd Losco C of E 4th Ermine Primary 5th Worksop C of E 6th Grantham Preparatory 7th Fernwood Junior 8th Bishop Lonsdale C of E 9th Chuter Ede Primary A sunny but windy Sunday (10th May 2015) saw a bumper turnout of teams for the Regional H5 and u12s competition held at the fantastic new facilities of the Priory Ruskin Academy Grantham Lincs.
