Handball

The S3/4 and S5/6 Handball teams made the long (back roads journey) to Motherwell for the Scottish Handball Finals.

The competition gets tougher every year as more schools across Scotland are competing in the event. This year was no exception and saw the best two schools from each region compete for the top prize.

The S3/4 team played Belmont Academy for 5th position and were narrowly beaten by one goal

The S5/6 team played Our Lady’s from Cumbernauld and again were beaten, finishing 6th.

Both teams improved game to game and were a credit to themselves and the school, to finish as the 6th best team in Scotland is a great achievement.

This is even more impressive when you take into account that all the boys had never even heard of handball before this year!

Thanks to Mr McQuad (PE Student) for coming along to assist.
