Following their AFL premiership victory earlier in the day, Buffs Bandits claimed major honours in the Mount Isa Amateur Netball Association Div 1 premiership.
"It's a good day to be a Buffalo," one of their players exclaimed.
MIANA president Zara Margolis said the popularity of netball had grown in 2021 and the sport had a terrific grand final day at Wellington Oval on Saturday
"The atmosphere was ridiculous, the fact the netball and AFL grand finals were on the same afternoon made for a wonderful feeling," Ms Margolis said.
"After the Buffs won their AFL grand final they came down here to cheer on their team who also won the grand final, it's fantastic."
Buffs Netball Club are only in their first season so this was an impressive win.
Ms Margolis said it was a close run thing against TW Fusion.
"It shows the level of netball calibre we have in the Mount Isa community," she said.
