Rounders
Rounders is the core sport in the summer term although girls do have the opportunity to play
tennis in PE and within the extra-curricular programme. Pupils are coached to have the fundamental
skills of rounders and an understanding and application of the rules. The pupils are then
encouraged to develop tactics and strategies essential for match play and fulfil the competitive
needs of pupils. The focus is to ensure all pupils represent the school in at least one sport
throughout the year and through the development of rounders we have been able to operate A, B, C
and even D teams to ensure pupils enthusiasm does not waver.
Rounders is a very popular sport with all of the girls and their enthusiasm and
competitiveness has brought endless success over the past five years in local tournaments and
fixtures. All staff are committed to ensure pupils fulfil their potential and this is demonstrated
by the number of staff who assist with training and fixtures.
