QISSN

The QISSN team kicked off the tournament with a tough start, facing early defeats that tested their resilience and team spirit. Despite the initial setbacks, the team refused to be discouraged. With determination and grit, they regrouped, refined their strategy, and came back stronger than ever.

What followed was a stunning series of victories. Win after win, the girls climbed the ranks, turning heads and gaining momentum with every game.

Their incredible comeback earned them a well-deserved spot in the finals, where they battled for first and second place in their division.

After a hard-fought and intense final against St James Lutheran College, the team secured 2nd place in their division, earning silver medals. This is the first time since St John’s started competing at QISSN in 2016 that the girls’ netball team has placed in their division.

Special congratulations to team Captain Millie Filan and Vice-Captain Elainia Cooper. Sincere thanks to coaches Rhylee Wiedman and Georgia Walton, trainer Bridget Bright, and manager Jenny Schuss for their exceptional leadership and support throughout the tournament.

The atmosphere throughout the week was exceptional, with strong support both on and off the court. The girls displayed excellent sportsmanship and gained a valuable experience that will stay with them for years to come.

St John’s would also like to thank the dedicated staff and parents who travelled to support the team, helping to create a positive and uplifting environment. Their presence and encouragement meant a great deal to the players.

A heartfelt thank you also goes to our sponsors, whose generous support helped make this opportunity possible. Your contribution played a vital role in this achievement.
