Ocean Grove v Modewarre
It was a big clash for the Grove Premier Division against the undefeated Modewarre in perfect conditions and the game certainly didn’t disappoint. Grove led the charge right from the first whistle and although challenged throughout the match, especially heading into the last quarter, the girls kept playing their game style and came away with the four points.
