Netball

Congratulations to Eniami (SFC1/Year 12) who has been selected to join the Superleague Netball Franchise Severn Stars U17 Long Squad for the 2022 season – a fantastic achievement!

Having already made it through the competitive trials, she now has a very busy Spring Term with training in Worcester and Gloucester, plus matches as far afield as London and Surrey.

Eniami is also a key member of the CLC Senior first team who will be competing at the Regional Finals on Saturday 29th January in Bournemouth.

The U14 Netball Team will also be heading to the Regional Finals at the end of the month. They saw some mid-week action with a match against the Challengers Team, followed by their Saturday match against the opponents, Colston’s. All age groups from U18 to U12 teams took part.

Hockey

CLC players have recently represented Cheltenham Hockey Club playing indoor hockey at the Olympic Copper Box Arena in London. Fevroniya (UC5/Year 11), Gigi (SFC1/Year 12) and Issy (UC5/Year 11) also played in the West Indoor Finals as part of the Cheltenham Hockey Club Academy.

Congratulations to Fevroniya, who plays for Cheltenham Hockey Club as goalkeeper for the U16s Indoor Team - the team came third in the England Hockey Super 6s U16 Club Championship 2022. Well done to all involved!

In Saturday fixtures, CLC played Christ College Brecon both at home and away. The senior matches were very competitive, giving the CLC teams a fantastic opportunity to demonstrate supporting the ball carrier and turning possession into meaningful scoring opportunities. Lacrosse

CLC players were active in matches and training last weekend. A senior and a U15 team competed in a four-team tournament in preparation for this term’s regional and national tournaments, while the Lower College teams got back into match play through internal tournaments.

The Senior Badminton team had a great first match of the Spring Term against Balcarras. Many students are midst exam period at College, but were still able to represent CLC, gaining lots of doubles experience. Well done all!
