A school netball team from Hartlepool have been crowned champions of Teesside after winning two successive competitions.
The team from St Teresa's RC Primary School represented the town at the Teesside Youth Games when they competed against schools from Middlesbrough, Stockton and Redcar and Cleveland.
A trophy was presented to the team, and players received individual medals.
Last month, the team was undefeated in the Hartlepool High Five Festival held at English Martyrs School.
Headteacher, Eileen Cahir said: "The team has done really well, and is a credit to the school. Everyone was very proud to represent Hartlepool in the Youth Games, and winning the netball event is a fantastic achievement.
"The squad of nine children who took part have worked very hard at their game and have been given enthusiastic support from the coaching team."
More than 200 youngsters represented Hartlepool in the Teesside Youth Games in netball, basketball, cricket, tag-rugby, tennis and swimming.
