💜 CHELMSFORD CAPRI 💜
Chelmsford Capri | Kats Rally, Colchester | May 2026
What a day for the Chelmsford Capri girls at today’s Kats Rally in Colchester! Competing in a tough Division 1 field of 16 teams, our Year 9s showed exactly what they’re made of — heart, determination, and an incredible team spirit that made us so proud.
The girls faced some of the strongest sides in the competition and gave every game everything they had. Finishing 12th out of 16 in such a competitive division is no small feat, and the squad should hold their heads high knowing they went toe to toe with some really quality teams today.
Towards the end of the rally, the day got even tougher when Evie, Elle and Elsa picked up injuries — but in true Capri fashion, they soldiered on bravely. With positions needing to shuffle to keep everyone on court, the team adapted without a second’s hesitation. Bella, Grace, Georgia, Abigail and Amelia seamlessly covered wherever they were needed, and those sitting out were absolutely incredible on the sidelines — cheering, encouraging and lifting their teammates at every turn. That kind of positive team spirit can’t be coached; it comes from a really special group of young people.
A special mention must go to Liz, who umpired an incredible 14 out of 15 games today — an absolutely mammoth effort and one that didn’t go unnoticed. Thank you so much, Liz! 🙌
Huge thanks also to all the parents who brought the girls along today and battled through the parking — your patience and support means everything to the team. And to Val, who was there every step of the way, guiding the girls and offering calm, valuable advice whenever it was needed — we really couldn’t have done it without you. 💜
A huge well done to every single one of you — Bella, Grace, Georgia, Elle, Abigail, Amelia, Evie and Elsa. You represented Chelmsford Capri brilliantly today. 💜
