Corby Dodgeball Club Under-13s showed great spirit as they competed at the British Dodgeball Junior British Open at the weeked.
The Corby team were always going to be up against it, as they faced an exhausting schedule of back-to-back fixtures against top-tier competition.
Corby were also hamstrung by the fact they only had five players in their squad, so no substitutes, meaning the players involved didn't have any chance to rest throughout a
demanding
tournament.
On top of that, four of the five players were making their club debut, and they stepped up brilliantly.
Throughout the tournament, the Corby team maintained high energy levels and kept going throughout.
Corby also earned widespread praise for their sportsmanship and integrity under pressure.
The team played five matches and were beaten on each occasion.
They were beaten 16-0 by Leicester Pumas, 13-3 by Royal Nighthawks, 20-0 by Altrincham Dodgers, 18-0 by Virtue Slayers and 15-1 by Harborough Hurricanes.
Corby coach and director Dale Page said: "Every single player demonstrated incredible determination by maintaining energy, passion, and commitment against some very strong opposition.
"They showed true resilience by bouncing back from setbacks, and fantastic teamwork in supporting one another and communicating throughout."
