A year ago at the National School Games (NSG), Victoria Junior College won the A Division Netball crown. But in the current NSG season, the Victorians' title reign was ended by Eunoia JC (EJ) in the semi-finals. The 60-56 victory allowed the Eunoians to reach their very 1st NSG netball final. And their opponents, came in the form of 2022's bronze medallists, Raffles Institution (RI). The Rafflesians booked their tickets to the 2023 gold-medal match, after defeating Anglo-Chinese Junior College 58-53 in the semis. And on 24 May at the OCBC Arena, hundreds of supporters from RI and EJ were out in full force, rooting for their respective teams in the grand final. For a recap of the memorable clash, here's a pictorial by Team Nila Content Producer, Sia Kian Teck.
