photoWNetballers from Haberdashers’ Monmouth School for Girls have been crowned U18 county champions for the third year running.

The team, captained by Megan, beat six other schools in the South East Wales U18 Netball Tournament at Ebbw Fawr sports centre on Wednesday, January 20.

Coach Caroline Jones said: “A slightly nervous start in their first match meant HMSG made tough work of it, but victory over Croesoceiliog never really looked in doubt.

“This was followed by further wins against Gwynllyw, Cross Keys College, Rougemont, St Joseph’s and Caerleon.

“The team now look forward to competing in the National Championships on March 5, and are aiming to better their third place finish from last year.

“Congratulations to Megan, Jenny, Sereima, Poppy, Issie, Evie, Annabel, Ellie and Kala!”
