Three

High Scoring Netball Wins

Cobar Senior Netball’s Round 11 games on Sunday at Ward Oval were played in very warm conditions.

All three scheduled games went ahead however the Tooth Fairies needed to be helped out by two fill-in players so they would have enough players to take the court.

Pumpettes were big winners in their match with Pink Galahs finishing with a 63-22 victory.

Best and Fairest points were shared by Pumpettes’ Sosie Barton and Neve Carter along with Pink Galahs’ Cairo Haronga.

The team Sportsmanship awards went to Jayme Francisco (Pumpettes) and Ashley Place (Pink Galahs).

Divas also had a big 56-12 win in their Round 11 match with JKM.

The Divas’ defence was bolstered on Sunday with the return of Amie Hill from injury.

Hill shared in the game’s B&F points along with JKM players Sarah Nicholson and Molly Broughton.

Sarah Nicholson also collected her team’s Sportsmanship award with Amanda Fugar earning the award for Divas.

The third game was also a one-sided affair with the Nymagee Magpies beating Tooth Fairies 69-14.

The game’s B&F points went to Nymagee Magpies’ Brianna Watson (3) and Peta Woods (2) along with Tooth Fairies fill-in Cairo Haronga (1).

The team Sportsmanship awards went to Brianna Watson and Shannon O’Reilly (Tooth Fairies).

Sunday’s Captain’s Trophy game was a dreaded Stroke event.

It was however no problem for former Cobar golf champion Andrew Bartlett, who thrives on the pressure, and he scored a par 71 (and is still playing off a handicap of eight).

Second was Jason Foster, two shots further back, and Brad Bannister also finished on 73. Bian Smith came 4th on 75.

Nearest the Pin prizes were won by Bian Smith on the 3rd hole, Foster on the 8th, Greg Clark on the 11th and Peter ‘China’ Brien won on his favourite hole, the 15th. Bannister Day, one of the oldest sponsored events on the Cobar golfing calendar, will be held on Saturday.

Sunday’s game is a Four Ball Aggregate. Next Saturday is the Inter Mine Golf Challenge, one of the biggest golfing events of the year. Out of Bounds
