A bumper weekend of Dunedin club netball produced some big results across the board.

With no netball being played next weekend because of King’s Birthday, premier teams had a double-header weekend.

On Saturday, Physed A dominated Southern Magpies winning 69-46 in the seventh round of the Dunedin premier netball competition on Saturday.

Physed led 20-9 at the first break, continuing their strong performance with the halftime score 38-19.

Goal shoot Lucy Morrison dominated the shooting circle, landing 29 of her 31 attempts at goal to run at 93% and counterpart goal attack Charlotte Nicol was also on point with her shooting with an amazing 90%.

Physed defence combination in goal defence Lucy Shirley and goal keep Maggie Mason were on form with their circle defence.

Physed extended their advantage to 53-32 at the three-quarter break.

Southern were trying to close the gap, their defenders, goal defence Georgia Cournane and goal keep Rebecca Mace were doing everything they could to prevent Nicol and Morrison from scoring.

Goal attack Chloe Davis shot 83% for Southern Magipes.

In other games, University Albion A played University Albion B leaving University Albion A to win 46-45.

College A had a nail-biting win over the South Pac Titans Tāiko to win 55-53.

The Titans Taiko bounced back yesterday to beat University Albion B 53-49.

Physed A were too strong for College A 55-47 to record their second win of the weekend and University Albion A had a massive 7-46 win against Southern.
