ACT netball championships to be expanded November 3, 2014 - 12:23PM There are plans to expand the ACT and District Premier Teams netball championship after Queanbeyan dominated the successful inaugural event on Sunday. Queanbeyan teams won three of the seven divisions, while North Canberra clubs made five of the seven grand finals and took out two titles. The one-day tournament was launched by the Tuggeranong Netball Association this year to bring together the best teams across the Canberra and Queanbeyan regions. Tuggeranong Netball Association president Louise Bilston said the tournament involved 35 teams and would be expanded in 2015. "We have already been contacted by members of Cooma and Jindabyne's netball associations who want to be involved next year," Bilston said. We are looking forward to starting planning for next year's ACT & District Premier Teams championships and will definitely expand to include districts outside of Canberra and Queanbeyan. Waratah, representing Queanbeyan Netball Association, took out the Division 1 and Intermediates Division 2 grand finals. Queanbeyan's Sunrise club also won the Intermediates Division 4 title.
