It was a mixed day on the court for Kyabram Netball Association teams, which battled it out on Saturday against two top sides.

The association’s under-13s Secondary (section three) defeated Shepp Saints, 34-27, in a nail-biting finish in overtime.

These girls played beautifully and came home champions.

Zanna Chapman was named the most valuable player for the game.

The association’s under-13s Primary (section one) team sadly went down to Mooroopna Cats Aqua, 26-7.

The girls fought hard until the end and have had a wonderful year and everyone is so proud of them for finishing runners-up.

Can't wait to see them in action in 2025.

Association players also had some wonderful achievements off the court that were recognised by Shepparton Netball Association in the morning divisions.
