Woodbridge Netball Match Report – Feb 2026

Late last week, our U14 and U15 teams were in action against Ipswich, Ipswich High School and Holmwood House. On Thursday our U14A and B teams played away to Ipswich, while our U15A and B teams played away to Ipswich High School, and our U14C and U15C teams played in a triangular against Holmwood House at home. More details are shared below in our report from Mrs Gray, Head of Netball.

With another six fixtures finishing off the week bringing mixed results, it was brilliant to see all of our Netball players playing competitive fixtures, regardless of level, and we are grateful to those schools able to provide that competition.

Also important is the Netball journey, which is always pleasing to watch, and seeing how players and teams react when the first quarter of a game doesn’t necessarily go particularly well and whether they can pull together to turn things around.

Well done to all teams for competing well.

There was a win for our U15B team against Ipswich High School in what can only be described as a slightly chaotic game! Unfortunately our U15A team lost against Ipswich High School, but it was a very close and well fought game and a huge step forward in performance for this team.

With a draw for our U14C team and a small loss for our U15Cs against Holmwood House, despite the result it was great to see the team play well together, and always an opportunity to learn and develop more.

Our U14As lost to Ipswich School, however they did make great progress throughout the game. After a slow start and being down a reasonable margin at half time, they bounced back to make the second half a far more evenly matched affair.

Our U14B team unfortunately also lost to Ipswich School; another match where a slow start might possibly have lost us the game, as they won the 4th quarter and only lost by one goal on 1st and 3rd.

Well done to our players of the match: Year 9’s Sienna, Imarah, Isabella and Honor, and Year 10’s Jemima B, Tabitha.
