The season started this weekend with a pair of games as the traditional format returned instead of the Queensland hub used last season. Saturday’s game saw Southside’s trio of Sara Blicavs, Bec Cole, and Abby Bishop lead them to a 94-83 win over Bendigo. The other game was early Sunday and Stephanie Watts had a strong overseas debut for Sydney, but Canberra had the better of the second half to win 58-55 in a game that also featured a twin battle.
