so suggest that the girl who was MARy in the nativity

[SCargot]

then went on to be centre in a netball team?

just a leetle theory i am h'explorin

I was a sheep and then went on to be centre in the netball team. Occasionally wing defence.

The girl who was centre at my school was also the angel gabriel. She always won the best hat competition and did indeed go on to have a string of boyfriends who sent her padded cards she turned into a right slapper.

I was Mary in a church nativity play when I was 13, but I've never played netball in my life.

I was also the baby Jesus when I was 2!

We don't have netball but I was Mary. (We don't have Nativity plays at school either, it was church :o) I was a cheerleader, however, and a standout on the Speech Team.

I was Mary Magdalene. It was a catholic school. They made me wear a teatowel with across it.

I was Mary and was never centre. Think I was wing attack and sometimes goal defence. I was always goalie in hockey as I was vicious.

Just seen it's anold thread and I actually answered it nearly identically two years ago under a previous name!

More data for you:

• narrator, always - solid, dependable, but lacking real dramatic flair - see netball position
• WD, just about good enough for team, but no real skill or height (not that WD isn't a skill for some, but it was in my team a bit of a 'tuck 'em away where they can't do much harm, but it rewards dedication to practice in all weathers)
• steady boyfriend... Hmmmm. I was one of the first (3rd year) to be in a 'serious' relationship, but we were far too geeky (see narrator) to care about cards, it was all about the snogging. In 5th year, I was the quiet girl with the knowing smile when the Marys and Centres were giggling over blowjob tips in Cosmo saying how gross it was, how they'd never do it. So maybe something in the virgin thing?!!

I was Mary several times and played Goal Attack.

The only role I remember having in the nativity is playing the sodding glockenspiel. I was centre in netball, though.
