Touring teams from South Africa called in to give the girls a run for their money but the Welsh girls proved they have the edge with the A team winning 31 – 28 and the B team taking victory in their match that ended 25 – 19.
Sixteen-year-old Chloe Turton from Treowen is no stranger to victory with the team, which won the South East Wales Schools Presidents Cup Tournament in February. Sophie is also a county player with the South East Wales Under 18 team and is in the Welsh College Netball Squad.
She said: “It was great to play the South African team, they were fast and furious and it was a worthwhile experience.”
Lecturer Emma Hurley said: “Both teams thoroughly enjoyed their games. The South African teams played a different style of game. They were dynamic, fast and very effective at communicating, they talked a lot.
“They had different skills that made us change our game play to counter act theirs in each quarter we played.
“It was great to play such a skilful team, making me think of vital changes from the start. They were very physical on the court but very polite, well mannered and respectful – a delight to host at the college.”
