Womens Team: SA 13 QLD 8 After a fantastic win over WA in the preliminary final, the QLD girls took on the strong SA side. QLD got off to a poor start and lost the first set 6-0. The girls mounted a great fightback but there was just too much to do. The girls played well but were pegged back many times with some unfortunate in-offs which the SA side took full advantage of
Women’s Singles: 9 Elise Mabbott (WA) Kristyn Nelson (SA) 3 I did not watch much of this match as I was watching Rusty play. Elise played good attacking pool and won the match comfortably for her 3rd Singles title. comments by Dane Beeton
