Nampol walked away with a 55-14 score in Windhoek at the Khomasdal Netball Court leaving Black Africa players stunned.

Nampol beat the red and black outfit to show that they mean business and that the latter’s dominance in netball circles is now history. The match was played in hot conditions but the players defied the heat and turned up to represent their teams.

In other games Afrocats (first division) defeated Tigers (first division) 38-37. Afrocats (Second division) hammered Black Africa 41-26. Wanderers (premier) narrowly beat Tigers (premier) 38 – 35.

Afrocats (premier) hammered United (premier) 52 – 35, displaying brilliant individual performance.
