Two young netball teams from Shetland have made it a stage further in their quest for national honours.

The Anderson High School netball team is through to the final of the Scottish Schools Cup, following 44-17 quarter-final and 40-19 semi-final wins against Dundee High School and Albyn from Aberdeen at the weekend.

Meanwhile the Shetland under-13 side have made it to the semi-finals of the Scottish Youth Cup, following their 19-8 victory over Dunfermline in Aberdeen.

The AHS girls will find out today who they face in the final, which has to be played on Thursday 26th or Friday 27th March at the Ravenscraig Regional Sports Centre in Motherwell.

The under-13 side will face Peebles in their semi-final, with the match to be played by Sunday 5th April.
