Earlier today, the Y5/6 Handball Team traveled to the Lee Westwood Sports Centre to take part in the follow on from the Nottingham City tournament – the County Finals! 

 

Our players soon discovered that our competition would be much tougher this time around, with all teams in attendance having a chance of winning the tournament. However Whitemoor dug deep, showing fantastic skill and determination throughout the near five hour event.

 

We won every game in the group stages (beating teams from Ashfield, Bassetlaw, Mansfield, Broxtowe, Rushcliffe, Gedling and Newark in the process), and thus qualified for the winners bracket.

 

By the end of these games, Whitemoor came away with the bronze medal, which is a superb achievement at county level. A huge congratulations to our players for finishing third out of sixteen district teams (over 400 children!).  

 

Our County Y5/6 Handball Team were: Daniel P, Castel B, Mason N, Harvinder D, Amarion A, Megan M, Millie G, Ciara H, Shania B and Natasha C.
