On June 15th, 11 UBNC members took a trip to La Manga in Spain. After a relaxing pool day on the Thursday we geared ourselves up for a day of netball in 30 degree heat. After slapping on the suncream and strapping up injuries we stepped on court and were undefeated for the day. This meant we were through to the cup and privileged to superleague player Josie Huckle. Josie plays GK/GD for Wasps and became the newest UBNC member giving us tips and motivation to try and win the cup. Unfortunately we fell at the last hurdle, losing by one in the very last second of the final. We were demoralised, delirious and sunburnt but came to the realisation that coming 2nd out of 42 teams is an amazing achievement and we definitely didn't make it easy for the opposition throughout the tournament. An experience none of us will never forget and we're eager to return and win next year!
