    Well done Ms. Joseph and the PSS. Hard work and committment always bring success and thats the difference between PSS and NECS. Don’t you forget that the girls on the NECS under 14 team has won the Primary School Championship three years in succession so they are a force to reckon with with the right leadership.

    Very Proud of P.S.S my Alma Mater you all have really made us proud and we are very greatful for you all dedication to the Sport, Once again congratulations. I have not seen or heard anything from Mrs. Cynthia Aaron Joseph, someone please tell me she is somehow involve in this because I remember when she left School in the late 70’s and started teaching at P.S.S and played netball quite extensively there both locally and regionally so her knowledge of the game is unparallel anywhere in this region and I would be surprise if she does not hold a position in the Caribbean when comes to this game she is a genius and her involvement somehow is paying dividens for the local grown team. My former science teacher and class teacher congrats to you and your entire team, P.S.S, people of Portsmouth and most of all the great people of our Nation. God Bless.

    Well done PSS and that is some of my good friends from Portmouth’s alma mater and I know they will be over the moon with great pride and joy.

    Over the years PSS has always been CHS’s rival in netball inter-secondary school’s competition and we had some very keenly contested and serious matches between each other, and it is interesting to see this is still happening among other schools on the island as well.

    Well done young ladies and keep up the good work not to mention kudos to your coaches as well!

    I often wonder what it would be like to see my old schoo CHS take on some of my old friends school PSS, with all the old players for both teams playing a best of 4/5 series to raise funds for a charity.

    I think an event lke this would have gone down a treat at the 30th anniversary of indepence reunion celebrations……………………Hopefully we don’t have to wait for too long to see this happen as that would be good fun and floods of memories will all come rushing back to us.

    Schools were certainly the best days for us!
