Netball is a tough sport…. but have you ever tried playing in a final netball game with a buckle fractured elbow? Well i have, it's not the greatest thing to do, it was a challenge! When i was 11, on a hot Saturday at Hagley park,  we had to get ready for our final game, we needed to win!! While warming up we did a drill and silly old me fell over and landed on my arm. I was in a lot of pain so i didn't play the first quarter. The coach put me on for the second quarter but there was nothing i could do, my arm was so weak.

We really needed to win this game, with me being injured and not being able to play it left the team with no subs, so it was them and if anyone else got injured we would have to default.

We were all very excited for this game but also very nervous! We knew we were a good enough team to pull through and have a great game.

The team went ahead and played an awesome game in the hot heat!!

Our team won the finals, we won by 2 points, it was a very close game. We all had to go up to the Christchurch netball committee and collect our medals and certificates.

I knew we weren't the best netball team, but we did stay positive and kept a good thinking mind.
