GAME ACTIVATIONS

QUARTER TIME

At tonight’s game we’re acknowledging National Road Safety Week. Tragically, WA continues to have one of the nation’s highest rates of road trauma. By partnering with RAC during National Road Safety Week, and every week, we’re urging the Green Army to drive so others survive.

Throughout tonight’s game you will hear from Fever players on why they pledge to drive safely, and we’re urging all fans to take your pledge too. Click Here to take your road safety pledge and you’ll be in the draw to win one of 5 $100 EFTPOS cards.

HALF TIME

Half time entertainment brought to you by Principal Partner of Netball Australia Suncorp. Suncorp’s Super Roller will test participants hand-eye coordination.

The name of the game is to roll the ball down the court and through the centre of the Suncorp Super Roller. Sounds easy? Let’s see how they go.

THREE QUARTER TIME

Three quarter time is brought to you by todays partner Containers For Change.

Containers For Change is here to remind you that every drink container with a 10c mark has the potential to live another life, instead of ending up in landfill.

Tonight we will be challenging two lucky Fever fans to see if they can identify not only which containers can go on to live another life but win some great prizes.

We can beat it — if we don’t feed it.

Don’t feed the fill.

FROM THE COACH I’d like to welcome their coach, Simone McKinnis, and Co-Captains, Kate Maloney, and Liz Watson back to Perth.

We look forward to a great contest and a great spectacle of high quality, skilful and intense netball.

The last time we met the Vixens in Round 4, they took the spoils by 9 goals. We learned a lot from that game, and we certainly didn’t produce our best netball. This time around, we are on our own home court and most importantly we’re very keen for the opportunity to demonstrate our growth and maturity as a team since then.

Dan Ryan

Head Coach WEST COAST FEVER It’s Round 10 and the business end of the competition is fast approaching.

Things are moving very quickly and with three games in the space of eight days, it’s a critical time in the season for all teams.

On Saturday night, we played on the Sunshine Coast, taking a 9-goal win over the Lightning. We were able to exercise our depth in this game and did well to keep the two-time premiers at bay when they kept coming at us. It was a long trip but it’s always worthwhile when you come away with the premiership points.

There’s no hiding the fact it’s a brutal schedule, but I think we have endured the challenges exceptionally well. We have recovered and prepared as best we can within the constraints of a short turnaround. Because tonight is a big game, it’s a top of the table clash against the Melbourne Vixens!

This is a HUGE game in the context of the season. The winner will claim outright first on the ladder. Make no mistake, this game will be played with the intensity of a final because both sides understand the importance of this match. That’s what makes it so exciting!

So GREEN ARMY, we need you to turn RAC Arena into the ‘Fever Fortress’ tonight. You are our eighth player, and we will need you at your very best. It’s going to be an absolute blockbuster and we cannot wait to play for you all!

Let’s do this team!

Go Fever!

Your Head Coach,

Reach for your goals, on and off the court UWA has partnered with West Coast Fever to empower next generation netballers to reach for their goals in sport and in their futures.

MATCH PREVIEW

THE SITUATION

West Coast Fever and the Melbourne Vixens meet at RAC Arena for a Tuesday night topof-the-table blockbuster.

Locked on 7 wins and 2 losses each, the teams are only separated by percentage, with this Round 10 clash set to define who moves a game clear on top of the ladder.

The Fever are coming from a win over the Lightning on the Sunshine Coast on Saturday, while the Vixens will enter the contest following a 3-goal overtime victory against the GIANTS in Sydney.

MOMENTS TO WATCH

The ability to run out this contest in the fourth quarter is likely to determine the winner of this match-up, with both teams coming off three-day breaks during a condensed SSN season.

While it is a Fever home game, they’ve had to travel further than their interstate opponents to RAC Arena after playing on the Sunshine Coast on Saturday.

However, the Vixens were forced into overtime against the GIANTS in Sydney, balancing the equation in what will be a test of stamina for both sides.
