We also caught up with the KCL Netball President, Abi Frith:
“The successes for KCL netball’s first team have been coming in thick and fast this year. The girls have been training hard to get their heads in the game and prepare themselves for the highest pressure match of the year.
“The matches against UCL are always intensely fought and this year the King’s girls are more than prepared to repeat our win, maintain the Varsity title and bring our trophy back to where it belongs, nestled inside Reggie the lion’s mane.”
The women’s Varsity Netball match starts at 18:45 and you can buy your tickets here.
