Mavericks Start New Netball Season in Super Style

Recently, the Mavericks beat the Giants 61-52 at Bendigo, securing their first round-one victory in the season opener.
Having recruited four new Super players, the Mavericks faced the Giants in their season opener after an off-season overhaul that included key signings, according to reports.
After a strong first half, the Mavericks pulled clear, with Uneeq Palavi finishing with 11 goals from 15 attempts, including five two-point super shots, and Price recording 21 goal-assists.
The midcourt combination proved decisive, with skipper Amy Parmenter, in her 100th Super match, proving a handful for the Sydneysiders in the nine-point victory.
Coach Gerard Murphy, who replaced Tracey Neville, called on Uneeq Palavi at goal shooter, giving the Mavericks early momentum in the season opener.
