Exciting grand finals await in Katanning Netball Association after close preliminary final action

It was preliminary final weekend in the Katanning Netball Association for both junior and senior players.

McIntosh were unable to beat Kojonup Opals in the junior division and this sets up a highly anticipated grand final to come this Saturday between Kojonup Opals and QFH.

Seniors had a great turnout as spectators filled up the grand stands for all four games, which were very tight.

It was a tough and fast-paced game in A-grade with Kojonup 1 keeping up with Olympians 1 in the first half.

There was a shift in the third quarter as Olympians 1 opened up a handy lead.

Kojonup 1 were unable to reel in their opponents as their season came to an end, 36-46.

Olympians 1 and All Stars 1 will play off for grand final glory.

The A-reserves final was a close call all the way through as All Stars 2 and Broomehill played an amazing game.

Both teams were strong and displayed great skill work and despite being neck-and-neck the whole game, All Stars 2 came in hard at the end to win by four goals, 46-42.

All Stars 2 will now go head-to-head with Kojonup 2 in the decider.

There was an upset in B-grade as Cardinals Fever and Kojonup 3 faced off.

It was Kojonup 3 who managed to push themselves with everything they had and take the win.

Cardinals just could not keep up and Kojonup took charge after half-time to win by four goals, setting up a grand final against the undefeated Dumbleyung 1.

The C-grade was a great match between All Stars 3 and Cardinals Phoenix.

There was plenty of intercepts from each team as the game went back and forth, but Cardinals Phoenix kept their noses in front to record a 35-33 triumph.

They progress to take on Dumbleyung 2 in the grand final
