SINGAPORE – A new era of Singapore netball arrived on Saturday, as a young team filled with potential delivered a championship performance at the Mirxes Nations Cup.

The Republic, facing a Papua New Guinea side to whom they had lost 52-50 in the tournament opener, exacted revenge as they prevailed 59-56 against the same opponents in the final at the OCBC Arena.

This was Singapore’s third title but first since the 2007 edition. They also won the inaugural competition in 2006. – Ervin Ang, The Straits Times
