A full and lively crowd enjoyed a fast, skilful and highly competitive game of netball at Headingley Campus, the new home for Leeds Met Carnegie’s Netball Super League team.
Amongst
the squad, who played a challenging game against the Brunel Hurricanes,
was Welsh international and Leeds Met sports scholar Amanda Evans,
who has been selected to represent her country in the Commonwealth
Games this year, and former England international Ruth Cockerill.
Commenting on their new home for netball, Ruth said: “The new court is awesome and it’s a real privilege that it has been supplied for us. It’s good to be on home ground so that our families can come and so that more spectators can attend – they’ve been a good first crowd.”

Campus on Friday 24 February 2006 at 8pm.
