While our Seniors certainly kicked a little straighter than Round 15, Kangas fans were nervous in the opening half that the boys might've been on track for another 19 behinds! The much needed win keeps them in the hunt for finals with two more games to go. The Reserves, Under 18s and Under 14s also enjoyed wins, with the Under 18s guaranteed a finals berth.
At the netball, the A, B and Under 17(1) girls all won. The Under 15s went down by a handful of goals which has unfortunately resulted in the side missing their chance of making the top four. The 17(1)s are still in with a chance but will need to play some good netball over the coming weeks. We're sure all footy and netball teams will be giving their all in the remaining games regardless of their spot on the ladder.
