Netball- Liskeard Ladies celebrate their promotion

Lux Park ladies Netball team from Liskeard are celebrating after finally realising their ambition to win promotion to the premier 'A' division of the Plymouth and District Netball League.

After struggling in the latter stages of the season to maintain their early form and composure, the team finished in runners up position to their old rivals Ashmoor but with a clear victory over all other opponents. The team has managed to overcome a series of injuries to essential players and relish the thought of some stronger opposition in the first season of the new millennium. The team will be moving into next season with out Sue Kibble but have secured the playing talents of Amy Greenbank to bolster the mid court alongside Helen Tuxford. Jo Fry and Tina Randall will continue in scoring positions whilst Gill Rolfe, Diane Day and Sue Piper will play in defence.

Thanks, as always go to DC Leisure and Richard Tuxford, Manager of Lux Park Leisure Centre for their continuing support.
