Braidhurst High School’s third year netball team travelled to St Andrew’s to play Madras College in the semi-final of the Scottish Cup. The game started off very tight with both teams scoring goal for goal. The score was 5-5 half way through the first quarter. Madras managed to take a small lead in the final minutes of the first quarter with the score 8-5. In the second quarter Braidhurst showed great determination and managed to bring the score back to level, but again were unable to hold onto this lead. Braidhurst continued to work hard to try and close the gap in the second half. Good defending by Caitlin Watson provided Braidhurst with more attacking opportunities and excellent shooting from Holly Worton and Gillian Scott kept the pressure on the home team. Although Braidhurst’s team put out a very creditable performance they were unable to come out on top. Madras won the game 31-21.
