Kowree Naracoorte Tatiara netball teams played well in Round 9

An even second quarter saw Kyby still hold a lead at the half.

Borders played a hard fought third quarter wth some basic mistakes by Kyby, saw Borders convert. Borders shot 18-13 in the third but Kyby pegged back the difference to go down by one at the final whistle.

Bordertown came out with strong defence in the first quarter, having many touches and intercepts throughout. Bordertown ended the first quarter with a 14 goal lead.

The second quarter saw Padthaway lift, with some great plays and turnovers. Padthaway's Casey McElroy, Sarah O'Sullivan and Hannah Grady moved the ball down the court well, creating more scoring opportunities.

Bordertown's Lucy Murch and Alex Langley were consistent in defence throughout the game, putting pressure on the Padthaway goalies, taking many rebounds and clearing quickly down the court.

Holly Bottroff and Lauren Edwards gave 110% in the final quarter for Padthaway, but they were unable to catch Bordertown who came away with the win.

An exciting fought game by both sides. A very fierce contested ball through the mid court saw all players driving hard to gain possession. Both sides chased loose balls to re-gain possession and provide opportunities for their team.

In the second half defensive pressure from both sides made all attackers rise to the occasion.

In the last quarter the intensity rose with Mundulla fighting back from a five goal deficit to win the game by one goal.

Exciting game for all spectators.

Lucindale started strongly bringing plenty of defensive pressure to limit Naracoorte's scoring opportunities in the first quarter.

Wet conditions made for a scrappy game from both teams with Lucindale capitalising on their turnovers to extend their lead at half time.

Naracoorte's depth was tested with a number of players needing to be utilised to see the game out. Chloe Burke came on and made a real impact for the demons at WD and a big congratulations to Chelsea duRand who made her A Grade debut! Lucindale ran out comfortable winners.
