Digicel set to take on Ginigoada in netball final

The Digicel netball team are riding high on confidence and are ready to take on Ginigoada tomorrow (Sunday) in the division 5 grand final of the private companies netball competition.

This is a first for Digicel to make it to a netball grand final.

Coach Susan Pala said it had been a long road but hard work and commitment has paid off.

“We first entered the competition in 2010 and worked our way up from the lower divisions to division 5 and 6 this season.

“We're very excited and looking forward to Sunday,” said Pala.

Digicel has beaten Ginigoada twice already this season, which Pala said has given the girls a lot of confidence for the game.

“The girls will give a 120 percent effort tomorrow to play their best and win,” said Pala.

While Digicel's team 2 didn't do as well this season, finishing second last in division 6, Pala said they will come back stronger next season.

She encouraged the staff of Digicel PNG to go down to the Rita Flynn Courts and support the team.

The division 5 grand final is at 1pm.

To further boost team morale, nationally owned company Tau Sportswear came on board, sponsoring the team with brand new uniforms for tomorrow's game.
