Paramana book 2009 grandfinal berth

Monier Paramana (in black tunics) did enough in their torrid encounter with City Pharmacy Rebels last Saturday to book a showdown with Esco Telstars this weekend.

Played in the heat of an overcast but still glaring midday sun, the game started off at quite a pace with the Reble's quick to make the first net of the game count, impressing delegates of the Pacific Games Committee inspecting facilities for PNG's bid to host the games in 2015.

Shooter Lua Mavara was again on the boil, playing a very solid game for the Rebels up front and leaving an endelible mark on that position in teh national team with her agro and excellent positional play, but just as impressive was the Paramana attack who in the end give as much as they got.

In the end it was several crucial turnovers that let the game slip for the ladies in blue.

This weekend will be a feast off fast and furious netball for the fans as Monier Paramana and Esco Telstars go head to head at the Rita Flynn Courts at Bisini. It will be grand finals for all teams with the U10's starting off proceedings at about midday.

Veupunama too booked a berth on Saturdays itinerary with a close win against favourites Telstars in Division 1 so there will be a lot of interesting prospects as the day progresses.

I'll see you all there on Saturday......
