Successful Trials for POMNA

The Port Moresby Netball Association (POMNA) kicked off three weeks of trials today, welcoming in the 2010 season.

Last year's premier division champions, Esco Telstars enjoyed a bye while new team Kapunarau showed their flare when they took on the Sparrows.  There was a bit of confusion as the Sparrows wore a scarlet red tunic for the game, a colour normally reserved for Telstars.

The Sparrows are still finalising a sponsorship deal fro the club.  An announcement we hear will be made soon.

As trials, the next three weeks will tune and tone players probably only just emerging from hibernation but as the ladies returned to their more stricter mode the serious element and pace began to kick in and the competitive streak more than showed.

The Rebels and Paramana met in the first premier division game of the day.

Trail games for all other divisions were also played today with the earliest being the U10's first thing this morning.




A reminder to all teams playing over the trials period that umpires are expected from them and so they should not simply walk off after their games.  If the courtesy has been extended to umpire your game, return the complement.

Game 3 of round 2 of the PCNC will be played tomorrow.
