We can’t claim that fans of Formula One are likely to see a car bearing the Rock logo tearing round the streets of Monaco. And it may be some time before a Premier League squad has a home ground called the Rock Stadium. But as we do have a competitive streak, we are very proud to sponsor a group of dedicated sportswomen out on the netball court. So let’s hear it for Team Rock!Team Rock plays in the Reading & District Netball League (RDNL) and the Berkshire Premier League. What they lack in newspaper headlines and huge transfer fees they more than make up for in passion, drive and team spirit – everything, in fact, that makes the game worth playing.
Last year Team Rock were runners-up at the national open tournament held annually in Bream Sands, and were promoted from Berkshire premier league Division 2 to Division 1. “We were also the winners of a recent tournament organised by the Army,” team member Elaine Harris told us, “beating the Army A, B and C teams made up of personnel who had flown in from as far as Germany and Cyprus for the occasion.”
Since October 2011 the ladies have been sporting their new black and white Team Rock kit, emblazoned with the Rock logo. But has it helped their form on the court? “We are currently sitting in fourth place in both the Reading and the Berkshire leagues,” revealed Elaine. “We love the new kit, and Rock’s support has given us a real boost. We’re driving for a strong finish to the season because, as always, top of the table is our ultimate goal.”
We wish Team Rock all the best. More details can be found by following this link.
