U14BThe U14B team had a tough season, only winning one match, but the progressmade was phenomenal.

We played with pace andconfidence and this proved our progress and ability made throughout the season.Our defence was very strong, with Martha Witt leading from the back, and wesaved many goals during the season. When we lost, it was narrow. Amelia Reeswas captain and led us throughout the season. She was enthusiastic and a greatteam player!Amelia ReesTHE JOHNIAN 99

Netball 1st VIISeason reports Miss Greenwood The 1st VII netball team have had an impressive season after a slightly shaky start to winter training and competitions. Not to be perturbed, they began with potential and finished with brilliance. The first fixture against Epsom was a series of frustrations, with us taking an early lead, but not converting this to a match win. This could so easily have characterised the season, but the girls were resolute. The character that emerged, and the conviction in their own ability and investment in the team is what came to define the season. The next three fixtures saw them move from strength to strength, annihilating Sutton Valence and Ardingly, and leading the Headmaster to describe their performance as ‘phenomenal’. There were some tough fixtures along the way, with frustrations at Hurstpierpoint and Cranleigh, but the team showed their true quality against LEH and Reigate. The girls were not diminished by these battles, and instead showed just how gloriously they were capable of playing, with a masterclass in the skilful, fluid and brilliant game that was a joy to behold. We rounded off the season with a supreme tournament performance at KCS. We dominated the early rounds and went on to win the tournament following a tough physical and mental battle in the semi and final: as fellow finalists, KCS, observed they were ‘just too good’. St John’s showed themselves to be a netballing force to be reckoned with. The last game saw the team lose to Bradfield College, but the proudest moment as a coach was watching them fight back to the final whistle, never giving up and wanting to play with class and grace, even when the chance of victory was slim. It was a joy to work with this team this season, both for the supreme netball and the incredible sportsmanship and sense of unity of the girls on the team. It was a delight to get to watch the girls build their team together and the progress made was incredible. Sophie Brewer, Mimi Rothwell, Lize Vogel and Charlotte Thompson will all leave the School this year and every one of them will be missed for their huge contribution to the team; particularly Charlotte’s cool-headed leadership and commitment, setting a shining example for both those in the team and those to come through the netballing ranks. 100 THE JOHNIAN

The season started with a narrow loss to our rivals, Epsom; however, the quality of our netball in this game certainly set the pace for the season ahead. This was showed through our phenomenal 34-4 victory over Sutton Valence the following week. It was this game where we really gelled as a team. 101THE JOHNIAN

Ellie Tredgett for a smiley and positive attitude on and off the court. Well done girls! U16A Katie Littlewood This season was a memorable and successful one for our U16A VII netball squad. Throughout the season, both individually and collectively we have displayed great improvement which was reflected when our team became runners-up at the Surrey County Finals. Our season started in November when we competed in the Surrey Preliminary Qualifiers. We had an extremely successful day and managed to win our pool, meaning we were through to the Surrey Finals. We then had the National Schools Qualifiers where we got dealt a tough pool but managed to lose to only Wimbledon, narrowly. This put us top of our pool and meant we were through to the semi-finals. However, in the semis we faced a particularly strong Guildford High side, to whom we unfortunately lost. Throughout the season we played and were undefeated against some very competitive schools including Surbiton, The Lady Eleanor Holles School, Bradfield College, Cranleigh and Ardingly. The most memorable matches were against Epsom College - our first of the official season, which we won 31-21 and gave confidence to the entire team - and Wimbledon High School who we lost to in the finals at the Surrey Schools. 103THE JOHNIAN

Cricket 1st XISeason reports The School’s 1st XI experienced a positive, mixed season throughout the Saturday block fixtures with varying spirit and results as resounding victories against the MCC and Reigate showed the true flair and tenacity the team possessed. However, inexperience and poor decision-making led to cracks in the team’s performance as crushing losses against KCS Wimbledon and St Paul’s lead to a re-evaluation of the structure and attitude. Over the season, many individual performances stood out as young Ben Geddes and Luke Trimming flourished with the bat, and Olly Hunt and Michael James prevailed with their bowling, unfailingly taking teams apart regardless of the situation. The highlight of the season came at the close of the term as St John’s travelled to Ipswich as defending champions of the annual festival, after home success the previous year, to take on Abingdon, Brentwood and the hosts, Ipswich School. Pressure was on to regain the title as no team had ever won the festival outright two years in succession. The first match against Brentwood immediately showed the team’s desire to prosper as Trimming and Geddes both achieved 50s and a 100+ opening partnership in the first innings. St John’s posted 209 in their 50 overs and managed to bowl Brentwood out way below the target with Fourth Form debutant Tubman picking up a four wicket haul, including a wicket on his first ever ball as a first team player. The following day saw St John’s face newcomers to the tournament, Abingdon. At the same ground and on the same pitch, St John’s knew the way it would play and bowled Abingdon out for 163. The return bout was rocked as Trimming fell on the first ball of the innings. However, it was to be Geddes’ day once again as he went on to produce a marvellous 92 not out, ably supported by an elegant 50 from Michael James as they steered the St John’s ship to safety, chasing down the total with 6 wickets remaining and 10 overs to spare. The final day, following the gala dinner the night before, saw St John’s take on Ipswich in their own backyard at a fine setting in the centre of the School. An extremely confident Ipswich side, who had also beaten Abingdon and Brentwood the previous two days, won the toss and elected to bat on a perfect day that was set to make a brilliant final. After a slow start, St John’s managed to pick up the first wicket, setting the tone for the remainder of the innings. Kimball Klintworth picked up the wicket of the dangerous no.3, who looked to be set, as the ball took the outside edge, taken by Hayden Storey behind the stumps. Pressure began to mount as Ipswich had no reply to Hunt and Budinger’s continuous onslaught of dot balls. Maidens began to build up and Ipswich eventually capitulated to 131 all out in 39 overs. Outstanding bowling and fielding opened an opportunity for St John’s to close out the tournament and defeat the home team. St John’s reply was cricketing perfection as, once again, young guns Geddes and Trimming took apart the Ipswich bowling attack, both amounting 50s before Trimming fell with just 9 runs to win. Captain Storey took the crease and knocked off the winning runs to retain the trophy and title for the first time in festival history. An outstanding team performance gave the team the victory they so richly deserved. A very fitting end to a thoroughly enjoyable season of which everyone played their part in throughout.

Season reports After a quick kit check we departed for International Dock, Southampton. There was a certain level of anxiety in the air and many questions about what the week was going to be like. We arrived for 14:00, unpacked the minibus and awaited our embarkation orders. By 15:00 we were on Donald Searle (79’) ocean-going twin-masted yacht. With food stowed, safety checks and briefing done, the skipper announced we would be making for Cowes, but we needed to get going as there was a gale (F7) moving in from the south west and things might get a little lumpy! Through driving rain and a rough sea, both the starboard and port watches were outstanding. There was no choice but to find your sea legs quickly and work as a team, and the St John’s pupils were simply amazing. It’s always a small worry to see how young adults will take to the sailing a large vessel for a period of time, but early indications suggested that this team were superb. Arriving in Cowes at 19:00, a simple supper of pasties and salad was consumed and we soon dried out and warmed up. At breakfast on day 2 the skipper gave his sailing plan and our intention was to make for Poole. After a series of ‘man-over-board’ exercises, sail changes, helming, knots and safety manoeuvres, we set sail for Poole marina in Dorset. Throughout the journey the crew completed the log, took charge of the sail setting and learnet how to trim. Winds were westerly and progress was through many tacks. By lunchtime the inclement weather had cleared to blue skies. After a superb evening meal by starboard watch and we had settled down for the evening, the standard had been set. Theo Trier took charge of the galley and Freya Scarry’s commanding voice could be heard organising her watch, regardless of the task. Briefed at breakfast, the skipper informed us that the wind - or lack of wind - would prevent any opportunity to make for the French coast and we would head for Lulworth Cove and on to Weymouth. We left Poole harbour in thick fog with visible distance was less than 50m. Progress was painfully slow across the south coast. Fortunately, port watch would raise the game even higher with the high quality of lunch and evening meal. The crew used the light sailing conditions to develop their skills on knots, navigation and, of course, cleaning the heads!! Both watches were starting to show their leadership skills. Martha Handsford was appointed ‘watch leader’ for the day, Izzy Mogridge’s helming ability was second to none and if there was any winching, Eddie Douglas was on the job, showing how it should be done. Morning briefing by the skipper explained the sailing plan for the day. Winds were light and southerly. Make for Swanage and drop anchor, unload a dinghy and learn to row. Knots were to be tested and the two watches would be pitted against each other. After a roast lamb supper, we made for Yarmouth (IOW) for the evening, a night sail and mooring. We slipped anchor at 22:00 and, shortly after midnight, out of total darkness five military helicopters swooped by the yacht.
