Netball
Netball is a major sport for girls in the Easter Quarter. Most girls in the
Third and Fourth Forms play the sport, and block fixtures can often involve
eight teams from these years. Netball continues to be a popular and successful
sport in the senior years, with over fifty girls opting for the sport. There
are twelve outdoor courts and one indoor court.
Fixtures are held each Saturday, and often on Tuesdays. Block fixtures involving
up to sixteen teams ensure that a large number of girls have the opportunity
to represent the School at a wide range of levels. The matches are played in
a very competitive but sporting spirit, and in recent seasons some senior matches
have resulted in close finishes with over seventy goals scored.
Each year in February Oundle hosts an Invitation U18 Netball Tournament with
ten schools taking part, including Uppingham, Oakham and Rugby. This tournament
has become a traditional event.
The Head of Netball is Mrs Burnham, who is also the 1st VII coach. Mrs Burnham
has many roles within the region. In 2011 she was awarded the East Midlands
Regional Coach of the Year award in recognition of the many successful years
spent coaching netball at various levels, from junior county level to the National
Talent League. In addition to her position at Oundle, she is currently Head
Coach of the Northamptonshire County Excel Academy. Many other full and part-time
staff assist with teams and training with the aim of providing structured and
enjoyable sessions where all girls can realise their potential in a very fast
and skilful game.
