The U19 girls netball team had their final game of the season. With an early start playing before school the first quarter showed a desire from both teams to put on a competitive performance. Whilst the final score didn’t go the way of Kent, the girls worked hard until the final whistle. A special mention to AJ for her final netball game at KCD - thank you for your contribution and commitment to netball at KCD, your sharp shooting skills will be missed but we wish you all the best for the future and hope to see you still continuing to play at Uni.

For some of these girls, this was their last game ever for KCD. While today wasn’t our day for victory, it’s the countless other moments that truly matter.

For some, Mrs Butler has had the privilege of coaching them for the past five years, and together we’ve shared so many incredible experiences.

Tonight, it was special to step back and simply watch the players embrace the joy of the game. Nujud’s incredible reach in defense, Maya’s quick movement up and down the court, AJ’s sharp shooting and Grace’s lightning-fast pace—each player brought something unique to the team.

We hope the Year 12 girls of this team carry forward this love for sport into the future and continue to thrive next year as their fellow teammates have done this year too. Well played Ladies 👏👏👏

Today, words cannot describe what a team these 5 players are.

Arriving after school to find out only 5 of them are playing was not ideal. 1 player pulled out 5 minutes before. 2 players were on another event - without me knowing in advance. They’re top of the table in their competitive division.
They had 2 options:
1. Risk it play with 5 players. Work their socks off for a win.
2. Go and forfeit the game but play with 5 players

The troopers they are, option 1 was the only choice in our minds.
With little to zero rotation on the court and a final score of 24-21, we WON!! I am so proud of these girls. Parents were absolutely amazed with how well they played.

The boys lost out marginally against a well drilled Deira International School. The game had many great rallies and it’s clear that volleyball at KCD is a remarkably growing sport.

U14 girls rugby team. KCD 50- 25 DESC. This was the girls first ever contact rugby game and the first time this age group has been a contact team in DASSA. I am so proud of how hard they worked. They tackled strong and showed some great dodging. The girls showed understanding of the game and we are excited to continue training and progressing as a team. Super effort girls 🌟

U12 girls rippa rugby, this was the girls first game of the season and for some of them their first time playing rugby. As the game went on they became more confident and scored some great tries and showed some impressive dodging. Final score was KCD 42- 62 DIS. We are excited for the upcoming games and to progress as a team. Great first game girls ✨

KCD 17-26 Repton

A tight and physical game this evening between two evenly matched teams. After a slow start we found ourselves 0-14 down. KCD clawed it back to 21-17 at one stage but we were always chasing the game. Lots of positive work from training implemented into today’s performance which was pleasing to see.

KCD U14A v DESC U14D Netball

An excellent first game for our girls yesterday with a 22 - 6 win against DESC. Some beautiful passages of play down court and the girls demonstrated superb versatility in the second half when playing out of positions. A strong start to what will hopefully be a fantastic term of netball!

Our U19A girls netball team kicked off Term 2 fixtures with a game v English touring school Royal Russell. Whilst the score didn’t go the way of KCD it was a fantastic hit out for the girls with an opportunity to trial new combinations and embed old partnerships. RR 25 - KCD 16. Player of the match Sihle
