Domestic netball seasons wrap up

The Myrtleford Netball Club junior and senior competitions have come to a conclusion this week, with the senior grand final held on Tuesday, 12 August at the Myrtleford Indoor Sports Stadium, and the junior grand finals held on Wednesday, 13 August at McNamara Reserve. The senior night netball competition finished with a grand final match between Wolf Pack and Wildcats - congratulations to 2025 premiers Wolf Pack who defeated Wildcats 31-26. Awards were presented to: Best on Court in Grand Final - Breanna Rouse; Best and Fairest (Suzanne Crisp Perpetual Trophy) - Lonni McPherson; Runner Up Best and Fairest (Kellie Harris Perpetual Trophy) - Celestine Zamperoni. The junior domestic competition has seen an increase of participation, making this the biggest ever year of junior netball in Myrtleford. The junior competition increased by around 20, with more than 140 players in total with 13 teams across Section 1, 2 and 3, and of course in the wonderful NetSet Go competition. Once again, the competition included a large contingent of players from Myrtleford, as well as Beechworth, Whorouly, Porepunkah and Bright. Organisers were really excited by the number of kids taking part, and the improvements seen in skills and game play across all grades. The finals games in particular were of a fantastic standard. In Section 1, this year's premiers were Diamonds, with Harriet Earl awarded Best on Court - Best and Fairest was won by Mackenzy Beveridge, with runner up Ella McMasters. In Section 2, premiers were Swifts, with Best on Court awarded to Ruby De La Rue. Best and Fairest was a three-way tie this year, shared between Emmy Mansfield, Lila Murray and Lexi Piazza. In Section 3, the players put on a great display of the fundamental ball and footwork skills they have learnt this season, and enjoyed a friendly competitive game - everyone had fun, did their best and celebrated a great season. This year's competition would not have been possible without an amazing group of coaches, team managers, training helpers, and of course the umpires. The committee would like to extend a huge thank you to all these amazing volunteers - this wonderful competition simply couldn’t happen without you all. The club’s development teams are still in action with all teams qualifying for finals in the Wangaratta junior competition commencing this Saturday morning.
