Despite a congested international schedule stretching squads thin, top sides in the Netball Super League showed grit and depth as action resumed at Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo.

With several stars away on She Cranes duty in the UK, Prisons showcased their squad strength, overpowering UGX Luweero 59–39 in a commanding display that reaffirmed their title credentials. Missing influential players like Malisera Akello and Lillian Ajio, the wardens still controlled the game from start to finish, highlighting the stability of their system.

Prisons now edge closer to what could be a title-defining showdown against KCCA on December 15—scheduled during a rare lull in the netball calendar.

NIC, sitting second on the table, also navigated their own personnel shortages to overcome a stubborn Posta side. With key names such as Gloria Aya, Fildauce Namulema, and Margret Baagala unavailable, NIC leaned on tactical discipline and rotational depth to secure a crucial victory.

Their path only gets tougher: NIC must squeeze in four league matches this week, all while preparing for the upcoming Africa Cup. A looming clash against UCU—one of the league’s most unpredictable challengers—adds even more pressure and opportunity, offering both NIC and their rivals a potentially season-shaping moment.

As the international calendar piles on demands, the coming weeks promise a test of resilience, adaptability, and depth for every team in the title race.
