Netball, a sport whose history at Sujatha dates to 1970, today is an established and increasingly popular sport among our students.
Netball is recognized as a fast-paced game that not only requires good teamwork and stamina but also quick and flexible thinking, in order to strategize effectively. The players practice regularly in their newly constructed playground in the school premises. These practice sessions not only build up the fitness and skills of the students but also give them importance of never giving up. Although the long hours of training under the hot sun can prove to be exhausting, the results attained on the court are jubilantly gratifying.
Since 2010, our netball team has been consistently participating in the Colombo District Netball tournaments, becoming the first runner-up in 2010, and going on to become the champion in 2012, and 2014, in under 12, 15 and 17.
We have received numerous other commended accolades such as the championship at the circuit meet in 2012 as well as the Best Player and Best Defensive Player awards at the Colombo District Netball Tournament in 2011.
Our annual Netball Big Match is played between SV and Visakha Vidyalaya, with our under 19 team emerging champions last year (2023).
