ROUND 8 - NAGAMBIE VS RUSHWORTHSATURDAY JUNE 16
Football and netball was back at Laker Land once again as we took on Rushworth. Some competitive games of netball and football were played. It was a clean sweep for Nagambie in both the netball and the football. Our Seniors, Under 18's and Womens Footballers enjoyed the week o and took the opportunity to get in a bit of extra training and get those little aches and pains right before a very competitive second half of the season. e results of the day below:
Another round another netball milestone to acknowledge the wonderful commitment to our club and to congratulate C grade player Bree Merri eld who will be playing her 100th club game today at Undera.


Bree played her rst year for the club as a 13 year old in our Under 15's age group back in 2016. She was eligable to remain in the Under 15's for 3 consecutive years in 16, 17 & 2018 before moving up to Under 17's in 2019. Sadly covid in 2020 denied Bree and her very talenated teammate their nal year of junior netball in the Under 17's.
However the netball club was delighted when she returned in 2021 to play senior netball.
Bree trained hard and performed so well on game day that she got the opportunity to show her skills in her rst A grade game that season.
As we know 2021 was also cut short, however being a part of some very good sides over the years and playing many nals campaigns has help Bree reach this milestone despite those interuptions.
Bree had a fantastic season in B grade last year winning the coaches award. Sadly a severe ankle injury late in the year denied Bree another nals campaign with her side. It was welcomed news that this injury hadnt stopped her return to the court in 2023.
Bree is a very experienced, strong, determined and skillful key player for her side this year.
Your passion for the game /club and the commitment and dedication your whole family shows by taking on roles to always help doesn't go unnoticed and is greatly appreciated. We wish you the best of luck for your 100th game & the remainder of the 2023 season.
