Head coach Freda Kemp hopes her team’s victory on Tuesday will give netball a boost in the region, after hosts Cape Town edged Tshwane to lift the trophy at the Spar National Netball Championships. Having lost to Johannesburg in last year’s final, Kemp was delighted with her side’s hard-fought triumph. “So that was in the back of my mind, apart from developing netball and winning, to take netball forward in Cape Town.” Earlier on Tuesday, Mangaung earned a narrow 45-44 win over Johannesburg in the third-place play-off in the senior division. In the U21 age group final, defending champions Johannesburg coasted to a convincing 53-38 victory over Tshwane.
