Leeton-Whitton's under 13s Junior Crows netball side taking on Coleambally Blues in 2022 grand final

The Leeton-Whitton Blue side have had an outstanding season that so far has seen them drop just one match all year.

The team finished the season as minor premiers before then moving onto the first week of finals.

In that match they easily accounted for Coleambally, who would eventually then win through to the grand final as well.

The score in that match was 42-13 in Leeton's favour.
