Sport Northland Volleyball Senior Tournaments Wrap Up.

Senior girls Division 1 Tournament
On the 6th of April the senior girls volleyball team (Billie Le Mesurier Cowbourne, Natalia Orchard, Alana Yardley, Anahera Rangi, Sophie Steinacker, and Sarah Campbell Winter) competed in division 1 of the Northland senior girls volleyball tournament. There were some very challenging teams out on the day but our team held their own against all of them. Though we lost our first two games to Dargaville and Whangārei Girls, we turned it around in our final two games against Pompalier, and the Whangārei girls B team. The team displayed an incredibly positive attitude throughout the day and came away with heads held high.

Senior Boys Division 1 Tournament 5th April
This year we were able to make it to division 1 in the championship for the first time. There were three teams in each pool that consisted of excellent players. We managed to take our gameplay to the next level and hope to bring our game another step forward awaiting next year's tournament with a few more to come throughout the rest of the year. There were aspects of our gameplay that we had been able to become more confident in and figured out other skills we need to work on. Our games had very close scores, but unfortunately lost the games in our pool. But we were lucky enough to win the play off for 5th and 6th place.

Team members – Kevin Kim, Kosei Hayashi, Bayden Puke, Morgan Bull, Albert Ulisala, Caleb Ansell and John Hampshire
