Woy Woy netball shines in regional league

It was a great day for the Woy Woy Peninsula Netball Association on Sunday, March 6 with its teams putting up an impressive performance against their regional rivals in Round One of the HART Regional League at Maitland Basketball Stadium.

Coaches said the Opens and 17s teams were a “pleasure to watch” with the younger squad coming out in their first ‘hit out’ together.

The Woy Woy Opens side won their first match, 35 to 11 against the Callaghan Opens, before taking on the Wyong Opens, missing out by just five points, 20 to 25.

The side then took out the Maitland Opens team 25 to 20 but lost against the Newcastle Netball Association Opens, 13 to 19.

The Woy Woy 17s team won their first game in a hard-fought match against the Singleton 17s, 21 to 19, before narrowly beating the Ports Stephens Opens 13 to 12.

The side then lost to the Callaghan 17s, 8 to 15 and KKNA 17s, 12 to 20.

The Woy Woy Opens will now take on its northern rivals, the Wyong Opens, and Woy Woy 17s sided against Callaghan 17s, in the Semi Finals on March 13 at Maitland Basketball Stadium.
