After three months of practising and a couple of friendlies, the Selsey Purple Dolphins were invited to play in a Back 2 Netball tournament at Westergate organised by the England Netball development officer for Sussex, Stacey Boxall.

The weather was perfect and four teams were present – the All Stars NC from Storrington, Midhurst B2N and a team from the University of Chichester (WSIHE).

Featuring a wide range of ages, games were played with enthusiasm, considerable skill and determination. The Selsey girls enjoyed meeting and playing against others who relished the freedom and fun in a team sport – weak or strong, tall or short, young or old, all were equal on court.

The tournament was won by Midhurst, who set a high standard. Selsey took the wooden spoon.
