The OA team took a welcome break from the office on Thursday afternoon to take part in our inaugural Netball competition. Four teams from four offices played each other in a league format with the top two competing in the final. I’m pleased and most surprised to say, the standard was quite high…. There was of course a competitive edge to the matches but all were played in a fun, friendly and supportive way. There were no tears, broken bones or arguing (ok well maybe one or two decisions by the referee were questioned :-)
Following the three league matches, Milton Keynes & Barnet found themselves in the final
Played | Won | Drew | Goals Scored | Goals Against | Points | |
Barnet | 3 | 2 | 0 | 15 | 9 | 4 |
Milton Keynes | 3 | 1 | 2 | 7 | 6 | 4 |
Bedford | 3 | 1 | 1 | 10 | 7 | 3 |
Welwyn | 3 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 14 | 1 |
Despite a tight final, Milton Keynes came out on top with a goal in the last few minutes to win 4-3 thereby taking the honours as OA Netball Champions 2017.
