THE LION'S DEN Dubai Netball 2025 This year, the Tanglin Lions proudly took two teams to the incredible Dubai 7s. Both teams competed in the Open Youth Competition, facing exceptionally strong opposition from South Africa, Australia, the United Kingdom, UAE representative squads, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. The standard of play was outstanding, with many of our netballers stepping up to compete one or even two years above their age group. Our players rose to the challenge with skill, determination, and unwavering team spirit. The tournament, held from Friday 28 November to Sunday 30 November, began with our Lions facing tough match-ups in the Open Youth category—the highest level available for their age group. On the opening day, the teams showcased resilience and composure, securing several impressive wins alongside a few hardfought losses against strong opponents. Day two delivered another round of intense fixtures. The Lions continued their spirited performances, adding two more wins to their tally. Their consistency and grit saw both teams earn places in the quarter-finals.
