CANOE POLO

The boys had a good couple of games on Saturday afternoon with a 6-2 win over Eskdale and a 3-2 win over Puketapu. The boys should be pleased with the wins, especially the last goal in the final moments of the Puketapu game for the win. The boys were put under pressure in the second game which made the passing more difficult and forced us to make mistakes, however the boys worked hard the entire game and deserved the win.

VOLLEYBALL

Last term two of our senior volleyball teams played really well in their division.

Volleyball Senior A were 2^nd place in division 2. On finals night NBHS Senior B players were organised on court from the start and we lost the first set. Our team worked together during the second set to bring the points to a more even match. Our strong team culture showed through in the final set, with the boys working on communication and skills to come back to win 1 set and get started on the 4^th set. The final score was 2-1 to Napier Boys.

In the first final the team came back from 4-0 down to win 6-5. The second final we were up 3 nil early with Napier coming back strong in the second half but through character and good leadership we managed to seal the game 5-3.
