Netball

Doon Academy’s S1/S2 netball team took the winding road to Cumnock for the next game in their league. The game started fast and furious with Doon quickly scoring 2 nets but Cumnock rapidly equalising. Jade Scott and Halle Fitzsimmons managed to score a third goal, but with seconds to go until half time, Cumnock equalised to make the result 3-3. Shannon Jamieson came on at half time to make her debut for the netball team and helped Varri Murdoch and Annabel McTaggart in centre court. Lauren Shaw and Claire Boyd played with fierce determination, obviously concerned with the result and refused to let any other ball past their defence system. Doon scored to take them into the lead and with 5 minutes to go, Paige McMahon was brought on again to aid the defence. This quickly took the result to 6-3 as defenders and attackers worked together to ensure another win. Well done to all girls who took part, in particular, Lauren Shaw who took home Player of the Match.
