Minogue Park Netball Tournament
On Sunday the 15th of June. My Netball team the TAI Soldiers went to Minogue Park for a netball tournament. Everybody meet there at 8:30 and we started with warming up and ball skills. Soon enough it was time for our first game. We were playing against Raglan Rebels and started off well. the games were twelve minutes each way with a two minute break in the middle. We won our first game 17-5 and said thank you and had a break for a game. Next game was against St Columbus Silver and we won that 17-3. We had a two game break and then were up against Paterangi Comrades. In the first half we were down but we fought hard and ended up winning 9-8. Everybody screamed, We were going to the Semi Finals. We sat down and had lunch. Then we found out we were going to be facing TAI Demons. The start of this game didn’t go very well and we were tied eight all at the end. The umpires then said that we have to go into extra time. We started off by getting in the fist goal then they did. It went on like this for a while. Then TAI Demons started shouting because they thought they had won. But they were only up by one point so we played on and in the end we came out with the victory it was a tough game and nearly everyone in both teams was crying. Our whole team shouted in victory and we were going on to the finals. We had a 15 minute break then played against the our final competitors. This time we didn’t need to go into extra time and we won in the end. Our whole team yelled in excitement. We had won our first tournament. We waited for prize giving and all went up for the prize. We each got a hat and a drink, we also got a drink holder for the game and a bag and ball. Afterwards we got a picture taken and went home.
