Ocean Grove seniors were at Torquay on the weekend, with Division 3 playing a nail-biter and took the win by six goals in extra time to get into the grand final.
Division 1, 1st semi-final
Ocean Grove 33 def by Modewarre 41. Best: Shelby Hackett, Bridget Taylor, Claudia Britt.
Modda got the jump on Grove early and although the margin was pegged back, it wasn’t quite enough to snatch victory.
Division 3, 2nd semi-final
Ocean Grove 35 def Geelong Amateur 29. You could see the top two teams both wanted this win with scores level at full time. Grove had some excellent passages of play and they stormed away in extra time to finish stronger and advance to the grand final. Kim Carroll netted 25 goals for the Grubbers.
Ocean Grove seniors still have two teams in finals contention with Premier Division not getting the final whistle going their way and suffered a one-goal loss to Barwon Heads in their elimination final. Great games from Division 1 and Division 3 winning their way to play next week at Torquay.
Premier Division, elimination final
Ocean Grove 37 def by Barwon Heads 38. Best: C Parker, E Howard, D Hoiles.
Great persistence wasn’t enough to get Premier Division over the line against a physical and determined Barwon Heads. Fantastic defence from reliable Candice Parker and mid court attackers Elyse Howard and Dani Hoiles.

Division 1, elimination final
