Pirates sail off with 12-5 win over Rovers in Men's Division

Winning the toss, the Rovers elected to field first sending the Pirates from Mt. Hagen into bat. With bases fully loaded, points were there for the taking and they got their first run after a hit by pitch ball allowed Chris Soten to run home from the third base.

Loose balls delivered by Rovers pitcher, Adneil Kouse cost his side two more points with runners going home.

Two more runners sprinted home after Robert Basse smashed one to the outfield. All of the Pirates five runs in the first inning were scored when they were two down.

Rovers by for women's grand final

The Madang girls were up by five points after their first turn at bat, thanks to some power batting from Eunice Fong and Angelica Takaili.

This forced the Pirates coach to make a change bringing on Vince Tirupia to take over the pitching duties from Lina William.

 Pirates hit back in the same inning with William making up in a big way hitting the first home run for the team, bringing the score to 5-1 after the completion of the first inning.
