As competition gets tougher, every player has a crucial role to play in the success of their team.

For the A grade Crocs team, the game proved just that defeated by Young Guns 56-5. The Crocs took the court with no subs and were missing their key attack and shooting players.

Despite the lack of players, Crocs still came out and gave it their all not letting the defeat dampen their spirits.

With the closest game of the night, Cougars and Rattle fought it out till the very end, with Cougars coming out on top with a 24-22 win.

Rattle took the lead in the first quarter but could not keep up with the Cougars attack, with Michelle Pitt’s shooting earning her best and fairest.

The Div 2 Crocs claimed a win over Ring Ins 18-11. Ring Ins managed to keep level with the Crocs for the first two quarters, however Crocs' defence kept the ball away from the Ring Ins' circle.

Crocs' centre Natalie Castro was awarded both players' choice and best and fairest honours for her efforts in the midcourt.
