Netball
The dominance of Harcourts in Netball Wairarapa's premier one competition in recent years could be under threat this season.
Results from the first two series of the premier one-premier reserve grading round matches suggest Celtic will give Harcourts a decent run for their money in 2013.
They beat a good Carterton New World Vipers team 37-28 a fortnight back and followed that with a 68-41 victory over Carterton New World Legends.
The depth of talent in the Celtic line-up is evidenced by the fact no fewer than eight of their players have been included in the Wairarapa team to contest the Wellington super league competition .
