It may have fallen short of claiming a Guinness World Records title, but the marathon netball game held in Canberra last Saturday succeeded in raising $20,000 for charity.
Supported by Tuggeranong Netball Association and the Vikings Group, the match ran from 8am to 6pm and raised $10,000 each for Red Nose and Bosom Buddies ACT.
“It was a great carnival atmosphere with some top quality netball being played throughout the day,” said Lisa Ridgley, Community Fundraising Manager ACT and NSW for Red Nose.
“Thanks so much to our friends at Tuggeranong Netball Association and Vikings Group for their support and for putting on such a great day.”
The Guinness World Records title for players in a netball exhibition match still stands at 1,322.
