The 2021 ACC Netball Championship Grand final was held last week, Tuesday 17 August, court 1 at the Gold Netball Centre.

The Grand Final was destined to be a showpiece event on the ACC calendar with the two-time defending champions Ursula Frayne set to battle it out with Corpus Christi College. 

Both teams had many highly talented young players that are currently in both WANL and state development squads and the game was always going to come down to which team held their nerve and maintained the pressure for the full 48 minutes.

Ursula Frayne got off to a fast start with a quick early lead before the game started to tighten up prior to quarter time where Ursula Frayne held a slender 6 goal lead.

The Ursula Frayne attacking shooters were on fire and working very well in tandem throughout the front court. Corpus Christi started to even the contest through the mid court and the battle was evenly split during the 2nd and 3rd quarters. Ultimately late in the 3rd quarter the Ursula Frayne defense provided some strong rebound and timely interceptions from the back court. This was the pivotal moment in the match as Ursula Frayne were able to maintain a steady 6-8 goal difference and keep Corpus Christi at arm length. Ursula Frayne centre Charisse Rond was everywhere from defence to attack and played a very strong four quarter game where she was the pivotal player in almost every attacking chain. A commanding performance rewarded with the MVP of the grand final.

Ultimately, the final score was a 51 - 44 victory to Ursula Frayne earning them the treble – triple champions from 2019, 2020 and 2021. A super performance from the girls!!!

Congratulations to both teams on the fantastic game and the spirit in which the final was played was also exceptional.
