In late March a business house competition started. Like last year this is a social competition for mixed teams, but this year we didn't play for the Hyundai team. At USP there was a group of students that were keen to play, so Angela organised a team and we played for USP.
The first few weeks were interesting, some of them hadn't played netball before and some were not very fit, so it was a steep learning curve!! As the season went on they all improved and we had some good wins. We had a few games where some of the Fijian boys came and played for us. They are all keen rugby players and were very fit, athletic and enthusiastic - but unfortunately they didn't know the rules! They certainly provided great entertainment for the crowd, but didn't always help the performance of the team.
Anyway, the season ended last week and we found out that we managed to finish 3rd in our division. A pretty good result for a new team - must have been the expert coaching we got from Angela! We are still waiting for the prize giving to find out what we have won, but in typical Samoan style no one knows when that might be.
