The Vipers Men’s and Mixed netball teams are dominating the competition for the 2010 season of M League.
The mixed team has added some hot new recruits for a shot at back to back titles in 2010. State league MVP, Kelse Browne(sister of Australia Representative, Madison Browne) from Geelong has been in top form early and provided some extra pace to the mid court. Along with Kelse as Victorian representatives, Stephanie Poupolo and David Chisolm have also come on board with teamVipers. They are both shooters and add incredible height and athleticism to the talented team. Kaitlyn Black, also a State League player, has kept the balance with some added height in defence. (more…)
