A huge thank you to everyone who took part in our fundraising efforts. Between the scratchcards and the mixed netball tournament, we’ve raised an amazing £460 for club funds! 🙌

These contributions go a long way in supporting all the essentials. From balls and bibs to court costs and help us keep membership fees as affordable as possible.

Congratulations Westside but a massive well done to our u19s- great improvement girls!!💚❤️💚

Congrats to our girls who played their last tournament of the season with the NI U15 Academies! 🏆

Ffion, Poppy and Issy were with Coach Maureen on the Belfast Green squad and Mila on the South Eastern squad.

A massive opportunity and step into the performance pathway for the girls and we at the club are so proud of everything they have achieved so far! Looking forward to seeing what the future holds and hopefully watching you progress onto the international stage very soon! ❤️💚❤️💚

Our U16s have DONE IT — bringing the cup home after a huge 26–21 win over Belfast Ladies 1s in the Grand Final 💥
Hard work, heart, and pure determination from start to finish 👏
This team is something special… the future is bright 💫

Our U14A team took to the court to face Valley in the Northern Ireland U14A Plate Final and what a game it was. From the first whistle to the final second, it was end-to-end action.

The shooting was outstanding, with composure and accuracy under pressure, while the defence worked tirelessly to turn over ball after ball. Every player gave it their all, showing incredible teamwork, determination, and spirit throughout.

In the end, Donaghadee secured a fantastic victory with a scoreline of 24–17, crowning them Northern Ireland champions!

An unforgettable performance and we are so proud of every single player! 💚❤️

💚 U16 SEMI FINAL RESULT 💚
What a battle from our Donaghadee U16s in the semi-final against Dromore 💪
A tight, end-to-end game that kept everyone on the edge of their seats — but the girls dug deep and came out on top 27–25 👏🔥
The determination, teamwork and composure shown right to the final whistle was incredible. So proud of this squad 💚❤️
On to the final… 👀🏆

Donaghadee U19s produced an outstanding team performance to secure a hard-fought 50–42 victory over Kingsway.

Both sides showed determination, with Kingsway pushing Donaghadee all the way. However, Dee’s relentless work rate allowed them to edge ahead and maintain control in crucial moments throughout the game.

A special mention goes to Poppy, Isabella, and Mila, who stepped up from the U16s and made a significant impact on the court. Their confidence and energy were impressive, contributing greatly to the team’s success. Overall, it was a fantastic performance and a well-deserved win for Donaghadee U19s 💚❤️

Things we love to see…Senior and Junior teams are absolutely flying towards the end of the season!
