ABOUT SARGEANT-MCKINNIS CUP
This game marks Game I of the Sargeant-McKinnis Cup, which the Clubs contest annually. Named after NSW netball legend Anne Sargeant OAM and Vixens head coach Simone McKinnis, the Cup is contested on aggregate over the Club’s two regular season-games.
The Vixens currently hold the trophy but the Swifts can take a big step towards winning it back if they claim victory. Read more about the Sargeant-McKinnis Cup HERE.
