Netball success

Doon Academy’s S1/2 Netball team journeyed to Belmont Academy in Ayr to take on their latest rivals in the Ayrshire League. Claire Boyd and Lauren Shaw were the undefeated defence team that travelled with us and in attack were Jade Scott, Halle Fitzsimmons and Sophie Dobbie. The game started off close as the dominant S1 Belmont girls gave the Doon Academy girls a run for their money. After refocusing, it wasn’t long before Varri Murdoch gave Jade the ball from centre and scored two nets in quick succession. Paige McMahon and Annabel McTaggart also did a sterling job of moving the ball up the court in order for Jade to score. The game finished at half time with a 3-0 advantage for Doon. Alex’s Dearie and Sophie Dobbie were brought on at half time and Sophie managed to score yet another net for Doon. The defense dream team prevented any goals being scored against us and Jade Scott managed another goal in order to secure the final score at 5-0. Player of the Match went deservedly to Jade Scott for her superb scoring. Doon Academy remains at the top of the league where they hope to stay for the rest of the season!
