2011 K-Day was hosted by DSG/SAC and Prep this year.
Netball matches took place on Friday 17 June on the DSG courts. There was lots of excitement and support throughout the afternoon along with some good and competitive netball. The junior school spirit was remarkable and they showed their character and skills on the court. The 1st team netball game was competitive with DSG taking an early lead. The shooting ability of the DSG girls proved unstoppable. Kingswood maintained their fighting spirit but it was DSG who came out on top winning 36-18.
Hockey took place on Saturday 18 June and there were a large number of people that come out to support this local derby day match. The hockey saw some close and exciting matches taking place throughout the morning.
The U13A team have not suffered a defeat in the regular season this year and were determined to not let it happen in this game. The DSG started brightly and scored 2 goals within the first half through Georgia Yakas and Ongezwa Pinini. This lead was maintained after a superb save by Avene Jongile, which proved to be the last time Kingswood would threaten the DSG goal. The final 10 min of the second half saw sustained pressure on the Kingswood goal from DSG, which saw 5 consecutive short corners go begging, but the Kingswood defence held up well during these short corners. While there were ample opportunities for DSG to strengthen the lead, it was the back four who made sure that the missed chances did not cost us, allowing just a handful of “D” entries which resulted in neither a short corner nor a shot on goal. The game finished 2-0 to DSG.
The 1st team match was close from the get-go with both teams having scoring opportunities. Kingswood had the better of the 1st half and went 1-0 up in the 15th minute through a goal by Shannon Arnold. DSG was determined not to give up and came out guns blazing in the 2nd half to score the equalizer through Jenna Scheepers off a rebound shot. They continued to put pressure on Kingswood, but were unable to find a 2nd goal. The 1st team match came down to a nail-biting finish with Kingswood being awarded a short corner on the final whistle. The DSG defence held up and the game finished in a 1-1 draw.
Well done to all the sports women and to the coaches on an exciting 2 days of sport and for the sportsmanship on and off the field and courts.
