The Western Province Netball Association (WPNA) won Silver at the 1st Asia-Pacific Masters Games held in Penang, Malaysia recently.
WPNA faltered in their winning run shown earlier, and went down to Dugites of Australia. The Australians showing great skill in both Serving and Attacking, made the Lankans pay for failing to read their pattern of play, to settle for Silver.
