By Sally MacLeod. The weather for golf at the moment is certainly fabulous, and last Wednesday was no exception, with a balmy 23 degrees, no wind and beautiful sunshine. There were 20 ladies in the field who played a Stableford competition which was generously sponsored by Terry White Pharmacy. We thank David and his team for their ongoing support of ladies golf in Naracoorte.

Border Districts are celebrating a drought-breaking premiership victory after winning their first ever KNTFL A grade football grand final on Saturday. In fantastic sunny conditions in front of a massive crowd at the Naracoorte oval, Borders took on Kingston, who also had never won a KNTFL grand final. The previous premierships for the two clubs were both in the former KNFL league, with Borders last winning it in 1991, and Kingston way back in 1984.

Kingston had the better of the play in the first quarter of the grand final, leading 21-12 at quarter time in the windy conditions, and then 29-21 at half time. Borders made their move […]
