One of the notable aspects of their progress is the level of responsibility and leadership the girls have taken on. From leading their own warm-ups to confidently approaching the opposing team's captains, the Stoke Damerel Stars and Diamonds have displayed maturity beyond their years. Notably, the teams have embraced the tradition of concluding each game with three cheers, a testament to their sportsmanship and team spirit.

Throughout the tournament, the girls consistently demonstrated unwavering commitment, giving their all in every game. Last week's performance was a shining example of their dedication, securing both a comfortable win and a narrow loss. The ability to adapt and improve with each game showcases not only their athletic prowess but also their resilience and capacity for continuous learning.

The coaching staff and supporters were thoroughly impressed with the progress and sportsmanship displayed by both teams. The girls' positive attitude, coupled with their evident improvement, bodes well for the future of Stoke Damerel's netball program. 

In the spirit of the season, the Stoke Damerel netball community eagerly anticipates the festive in-house tournament and the exciting challenges that lie ahead in the new year. The future looks bright for the Stoke Damerel Stars and Diamonds, who continue to sparkle both on and off the netball court.
