This weekend saw the Sirens return to the Algarve for our first competion in the international Algarve 7s. A 2-day sports festival with over 70 international sports teams and more than 2000 athletes participating in Rugby, Netball, Field Hockey and Golf, this was always going to be our most challenging tournament to date.
The Silver Coast Sirens took not one, but TWO teams to the Algarve this weekend to compete in the second Mermaid Trophy, featuring running and walking netball competitions.
We're thrilled to reveal our new logo..... Of course we needed to keep our lovely mermaid and our netball, but she needed a bit of a makeover to ensure we could reproduce her more easily in print, for things like kit and publicity.
As World Cup fever grabs netball fans around the globe, teams in Portugal are joining forces to establish netball here, encouraging more women to take up sport.
More than 60 players turned up at Caldas Rugby Club to take part in a fund raising rounders tournament hosted by the Silver Coast Sirens netball team. Brush up on your Portuguese and read the report in the Gazeta das Caldas here: Game raised funds for Bombeiros
Just ahead of our Charity rounders match to raise funds and supplies for the bombeiros in Caldas da Rainha and Obidos,we chat with Carl at the Good Morning Portugal podcast.
