Papua New Guinea netball coach Annie Iamo says the country’s second-place finish in the Pacific Series is a big boost to their hopes of qualifying for next year’s Commonwealth Games.
The Pepes beat the Cook Islands 67- 53 in their final match last week in Apia, following an opening loss to Fiji and a narrow win against Samoa. Two victories is a big improvement on their bottom-placed finish in the previous three tournaments. With only 12 teams contesting next year’s Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in Scotland in the United Kingdom, Annie Iamo says it’s a big lift for the Pepes who are ranked 20th. Comments are closed.
