The girls, from Jeppe High School for Girls, recently participated in the U/21 inter-provincial tournament in Durban.
Brittney, who played goal shooter and wing attack, and Robyn, who played wing defence, were the only two school girls in the Central Gauteng team.
Gauteng was represented by three teams at the tournament but the Central Gauteng team was the only development team. The team was placed in Pool C of the tournament. The girls played seven matches over six days and said it was an amazing experience.
They found the game a lot faster than netball at school and learnt a lot from their team members and opposition.
The girls attended a netball training camp with the school earlier this the year and were thrilled to be playing in the same age group as their trainers, who were playing in Pool A.
Central Gauteng finished in second place in Pool C and the players were awarded silver medals.
