Our Star of the Week is the Namibian netball team that on Wednesday defied all odds to claim a well-deserved victory against Zambia, in the final match of the Debmarine Namibia Senior Netball Pent Series. The resurgent ‘Desert Jewels’ defeated Zambia by 54 baskets to 43 in a hotly contested final, where ‘Mansie Tjivera’s Babes’ put up a gallant showing to dispatch their much-fancied opponents in fine style.
Stamina combined with a sound tactical approach won them the day.
