Season Over!

Netball is over for season 2008....well for my team anyway.

We finished second last (4th out of 5 teams) and still made the finals with only four wins for the year (three over the bottom winless team and one by forfeit)! The top four always make the finals. What a great association to play in!

So last week we had our semi-final against the 3rd placed team, the Skunks. I was hoping and praying that we would have enough people as we'd played the last three games with only six and had to forfeit one because we only had four. One of these games we won with only six players and they had seven. Sure it was against the bottom team but it was good to win regardless.

We had seven people last week and after a tight, fast and furious game, we went down 25-20. It was disappointing but we did our best.

One of the ladies in my team plays basketball and is keen to get us to all play with her in a summer competition. Most of us have never played basketball before but we are keen to stay together as a team. One chick said that it's a shame the season is now over as we were just starting to click together on the court. I'm glad we should all be back next year and will be welcoming a couple of pregnant ladies back again after they've had their babies. Looks like I'll be a Warrior next year and beyond which is good.

The grand final is next week and we'll all be coming along for the windup and to see who won the league best and fairest...Dally netball's version of the Brownlow.
