AND THAT'S A WRAP

29 June 24 | 18:02

And that's it! #WSGNetball 2024 has come and gone in a flash. We have so much more photo and video content to upload over the coming days, but wanted to end today with a few thank yous...

Thank you to the athletes, coaches, officials and supporters who made the last few days possible. We are truly grateful and can't wait to see you at another event very soon.

Time to sign off another chapter of The World Schools Netball Cup. Until next time...

HURSTPIERPOINT AT THE DOUBLE

29 June 24 | 16:21

Just as soon as we were typing about Hurst's triumph over Dubai College in the U18 Cup final, their U15 squad took a commanding lead in their final, so we thought it called for a double celebration on the blog.

Presenting your U15 and U18 champions and the moments their dreams came true...

SCARISBRICK HALL ARE U13 CHAMPIONS

29 June 24 | 14:41

Congratulations to Scarisbrick Hall School who have been crowned #WSGNetball U13 Cup champions after beating Manchester HS for Girls in the final.

Check out these post-match scenes!

#WSGCHALLENGE

29 June 24 | 13:14

Little challenge for you to try back at home (if you just happen to have goalposts at home). Work in groups of 3, standing 1 behind the other. Each player takes a turn at shooting from their spot. After each shot, the player moves to behind the last person in the queue.

See how many goals you can score without missing. Our pros managed 5! I'm sure you can beat that...

HOW ABOUT THAT FOR TIMING?

Our photographer snapped this brilliant image yesterday. Netball's answer to a solar eclipse!

DO YOU TRUST YOUR TEAMMATES?

29 June 24 | 12:03

Sophie Egbaran, Yomi Wilson and Lydia Harrison all have an interesting way of proving how much they trust each other. I'm not sure I would trust my teammates to do this... would you?
