in the mid court and the Bouchier gals - Brandi, who played game 200, & Ellie creating plenty of turnover ball…

It was also a day to celebrate a great milestone – 250 games for Kim M Intyre-Clarke…

Reliable, durable and a potential matchwinner – this player has represented the South Gambier Netball Club for 250 games and in almost all of them she has been a star

A circle defender, she has consistently polled well in association best and fairest counts, often appearing in her grade’s top five and she has plenty f club trophiesinthecabinet.

She plays a tight checking game but also reads the play well and hunts the interception, loving nothing more than powering into the centre third to take a spectacular interception…

She works hard over the shot and reboundsstronglyandisakeyplayer in transition, driving hard down courttoturndefenceintooffence…

She has played with experienced defenders and also helped develop younger team mates and she has a competitivestreaklikenoother…

They don’t come any tougher, or more determined to succeed than Maca–KimMcIntyre-Clarke…

The shift from defence to attack and vice versa was swiftand proactive which paid off overand over We look forward to our final round vs a competitiveEastsidebeforethefinalsseries,
