It’s great to see the Prem final between two of the top clubs A teams! This will provide some quality netball viewing 🔥

It’s Semi Finals Week!

We are incredibly proud to see 7/8 St Mary’s Teams reaching the semi final stage!

One thing is for sure……there will be a St Mary’s team in the Prem final 🤭

The battle between the Old Gal’s and our A’s will provide some good viewing!

Plenty of action at the ILT Stadium this Saturday

💙

Our A’s are back at the Stadium tonight taking on Rata A in the CPC league.

Get along after dinner and watch some good quality netball 💪🏻

That’s a wrap for our Men’s Teams!

They’ve battled through the highs, the lows and a few challenges that definitely weren’t in the game plan. Somehow they’ve all survived the season, mostly in one piece! And we are very proud of the effort they put in!

Well done lads! Enjoy the well earned rest, the new season will be here before we know it!

Also a huge thanks to the coaches and managers who generously donate their time to make this all happen!

Results
Town 4th in A grade
Gore 2nd in A grade

There’s no netball for our teams this Saturday, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get together!

Tables available from 7pm

Dinner, pints and netball, how good 🙌🏻

It’s the final round of the round robin games this weekend at the Stadium!

With most teams looking good to secure spots in the semi finals, these games will still be a good watch!
