Nanango & District Netball Association president Moira Early said there was some great action in the grand finals.
“Both finals displayed great netball skills and the improvement of the players from the start of the season,” she said.
“The teams had fun decorating the courts and arches to run through prior to the finals being played.”
Moira said the inaugural Inter-District competition between Kingaroy and Nanango had been a great success with the players enjoying the increased competition in amalgamating the competition between the two clubs.
“Both clubs have seen an increase in numbers in all age groups of netball and a much higher profile of netball in both South Burnett towns,” she said.
“The combined representative teams from 11 years through to 16 years were more competitive at a Regional and State level.
“The associations are looking forward to the 2014 season to seeing these teams improve further.”
Moira said anyone interested in assisting with coaching or managing teams or helping out on the committee should contact their local club.
